I thought we weren't going to get one the way things were going - we had three seconds between yesterday and today. We are just getting it right with the trip. I trained the half-sister, Lady Scathach, and she was seven (furlongs) to a mile. This one always showed us enough pace at home to do that. That's kind of what I had in my head until he ran in Limerick and was just very one paced. Up to a mile and one in Leopardstown, he improved. Robert thought he would see out a mile and a-half no problem. He's a grand horse. I was annoyed with the handicapper, he dropped him out of the system two runs back and he's lightly raced, he's only had six or seven runs and he dropped him out - dropped him 4lb or 5lb. I won't have to worry about that for now. Maxwell Smart (runner-up) was flying home again, maybe just didn't travel as well early on, but he finished out really well.
