Glorious Goodwood Tips

He just can handle any conditions and he's got a guy like Ruby riding him. Paul (Townend) does all the home-work with him and last Saturday himself and Quevega worked and they blew me away. Champagne Fever worked well too but he was disappointing on Tuesday for whatever reason. We were keeping our fingers crossed then all week that we'd get Hurricane Fly here in that kind of form. I'd love to have a crack at the French Champion Hurdle but I have two or three for that including Thousand Stars who ran a cracker there. Dawn Run did the treble, and I've no doubt he could, but we'll probably put him away. Hopefully we get him back in the same form next autumn. You always have to be scared of these younger horses coming through, they have to be respected. They could improve a stone whereas my fellow won't.
