Vis Ta Loi is a horse who hides his light under a bushel, but the only thing we did know coming here was that he was a brilliant jumper. I said to Danny don't be afraid to make the running,. He is a chaser in the making and we've been disappointed with him at home but when we started schooling him we saw he had ability. He had some small problem last year and I didn't want to go and win a novice late in the season and wanted to keep him a novice for this year. He'll be lovely for this year but the sooner we get to fences the better. We didn't know between my two runners today and the other horse (K'chou Du Pecos Aa) would probably be better than him at home but this fellow's jumping was way better. K'chou Du Pecos Aa was keen in behind and I'd imagine both horses will want a trip in the future. W P Mullins, trainer
