that’s hard work from so many people and the lads put so much in day in day out. We are just a small part of a big team and I’m delighted for everybody. that was a masterclass from Ryan - he’s confident, mature, dedicated, passionate and he’s very strong. He has everything and is a great fellow to work with. He was happy to make the running and happy to take a lead. The horse gets 1m2f very strong. The last day was his first day and we were happy to sit in. When a horse is happy to make the running they are very independent and you are not at the mercy of anybody. Ryan guided him through all the fractions. He went to the (Irish) Champion Stakes after a terrible preparation. He then went to the Arc on bad ground after that hard preparation and it was always possible that he would be as good. The lads had the patience to leave him alone and he’s a very serious horse. He’s not for kids, he’s a hardy customer. He’s tough and has loads of class. A P O'Brien, trainer
