Capri goes in at 2/7
The betting said that the 'Ladbrokes' European Breeders Fund Maiden at Galway was an open and shut case. Two to seven chance Capri pleased those that forced him into such odds, with a convincing two and a half length success. Sat 30th Jul
He gave him a great ride and he settled well,. He had a little bit of class and there was a chance he would be a little bit better than them. Obviously Wicklow Brave is a very good horse but he had a little bit of class and it worked today. Three-year-olds have a good record in this race. It looked today like he could be a Leger horse. He did well to go and get Wicklow Brave as he's a very good horse. We hadn't thought much further than today. We were probably finding out about him trip-wise today. There is Doncaster and the Irish Leger. He has to go to one or the other and he he probably has to go somewhere between now and then as well. An awful lot will depend on how the races are looking closer to the time. I'm sure there will be a few better three-year-olds than were taking him on today in Doncaster. We'll see what happens closer to the time but it's nice that he's back in form anyway. We'll probably have to meet Order Of St George somewhere. If we don't meet him in the trial here we might meet end up meeting him in September here. His Leopardstown form (Ballysax win) has worked out really well with Capri in behind and the Dante form (4th to Permian) worked out very well too. The winner won in Ascot and all the form is working out. A lot of people are knocking the three-year-old generation but it will be interesting to see in the next month or six weeks.
Joseph Patrick O'Brien
he's a grand colt, ran well in Galway and is a nice horse. I don't know where he'll go now but he’ll be a grand mile-and-a-half horse. I'll speak to the owners but it's possible he might not run again this year as he's only a frame.
David Wachman
