that is brilliant, I’m delighted and the owners and whole (Mullins) family have been very good to me. I think Cause For Comment is a better horse this year as he was only five last year and has improved a lot. Today was a good race for a maiden hunters chase, so it is great. He was idle in front but had a good man on his back. I leave plans to the jockey, he picks those.
