I'm delighted with that. I had a feeling she might be second. Colin was very clever on her, he never gave up the rail. It was hard for David's horse as she had to give us eleven pounds and the rail, and it was probably a hell of a run from her considering. I was a little worried that five furlongs might be a bit sharp for her. She'll go six furlongs. She is in a five furlong Listed race on Saturday (at the Curragh) and if she eats up well and gets back to her weight she will run.
