He likes to be let stride along like that, we were probably riding him wrong by holding him up,. Since we've let him use his stride he seems to be a bit better. I'd like to put him over two miles, I think he'll be better at two miles, and he might go to the big amateur handicap in Galway. Whether the handicapper will have him caught now, I don't know. The good thing is that he doesn't win by too far. He's progressing all the time and I might give him a run in a maiden hurdle between now and Galway. I'll talk to the owner, we might go for a two-mile handicap on Guineas weekend, and we'll see what he says. We have plenty of options, he's loving his racing and he's in a good place. It was actually Amy Jo that told me about this race last Saturday morning. She works hard so she deserves every ride she gets. Andrew Slattery, trainer

Briselden, unplaced, and Hawke Eye, unplaced, ridden by Siobhan Rutledge where Vultan made contact with the railing. Evidence was heard from the riders concerned. Ms. P.R.
