He was very free in the Foxhunters at Aintree and just ran himself into the ground. Two and a half miles is his maximum trip and Jamie got him to 'spit it out' - that's this great expression I understand to mean 'relax'. Jamie did the brave thing at the last and the horse in fairness answered him. I don't think there's another hunters' chase at that distance for him now and he might go back handicap chasing now or else could be sold. Like us all, Mr Potts (owner) wants good horses and he's a nice horse but won't be any better. We're five miles from Fairyhouse but going there would be way too simple so I was sent here, Thomas (son) went to Antrim (Loughanmore point to point) and we had a point to point winner at Stradbally.
