it is hard to say what would have happened but if I had to ride the race again, I don’t think I’d have jumped off where I did (in second place). I got a horrid spin off him, so would have been better off jumping off last, but you live and learn and I’ve learned an awful lot about him. You think you know all about them when riding them out at home but I suppose he was a big baby and is waking up. He got away with it today but jumping off handy again wouldn’t be a good idea. Being a one-trick pony is grand when you are making the running, but I was in the wrong position today and I think there’ll be a better performance in him as he was so free the whole way. The next day we’ll either pop out (and lead) or drop in and I wouldn’t rule out going to Navan in three weeks for the Monksfield Novice next. Declan Queally, trainer
