This fella is improving all the time but I didn't think he had improved that much,. I only threw him into the race at the last minute as I thought 'where else do I go with him.' . Paul gave him a great ride. The improvement I've seen in his homework is vindicated. Tell Us More jumped fantastic and raced great. He probably had to do all the donkey work and that probably just told. He beat off Free Expression, the one that we thought would jump and stay as well as anything. It's possible Mckinley's flat race experience might have paid off. Tell Us More had three races where he didn't have to fight or battle and inexperience might have beaten him. We'll look at the Deloitte now for them. There are a few novice hurdles around and we'll see how they come out of that and see how next weeks novices get on. We thought Tell Us More was a stayer but we might think about coming back in trip now.
