she is a lovely, big tough filly and will be lovely for chasing next year. We'll probably give her one more run and then she'll go out for the summer. Nothing went right for her at Wexford and a loose horse was all over the place but we learned an awful lot about her after her Limerick run. She doesn't take to the padded hurdles as well as the Easifix hurdles but today is more of a reflection of the filly. If it dries out too quick she'll go out on holidays.
