that was great! Seabass got under the last but was gutsy. He was out of his comfort zone over two miles and was going faster than he wanted to go but battled well. Maybe some of the other horses weren't as good as they used to be but he was won €120,00 since he won his point to point and that's not bad! If he stays sound, we'll go to Aintree for the Grand National. There's no ideal type of horse for that race, you won't know until you get there. Nobody knows if he'll get the trip he's never been beyond three miles but I imagine looking at him he is the right type. However, the biggest problem is keeping him sound - he has been on the ‘scrap heap' three times already.
