We went in and then came out a bit but I thought he kept him fairly straight,. We've run him four times in the last few weeks which seems an awful lot. I used to look after this horse and run him every four weeks. He's turned out very nicely and we're very happy the way he fought back today. Obviously six furlongs around here is a trip he likes. I know he's not young but maybe he'll be back next year. The young lad gave him a lovely ride. I asked him not to go for him quick but to start it up slowly and to be fair he did. He did a nice job.

They were, however, of the opinion that the interference was caused by S. Foley riding carelessly and suspended him for 1 raceday having taken his previous record into consideration
