Cheltenham Tips

He ran four times last year beating Highland Reel first time before running against Gleneagles, John F Kennedy and Ol' Man River. He's a tough colt and will obviously appreciate better ground. This is a logical prep race for the Irish Guineas and he'll take his chance now in the Irish 2,000 Guineas. He was working well and my only concern, being an American bred and very effective on good ground, was how would he handle that much cut in the ground. If he doesn't run in the Irish 2,000 Guineas then he could go for the Jersey Stakes.
