Big Bucks will hardly be shaking in his boots! We have that under our belts now anyway. He could go for the Long Walk, but that could be a long walk and we mightn't go there. We'll keep to him around three miles for the rest of the season. He got a great ride (from Davy Russell) and fair play to the horse, he stuck his head well out at the end. It was a three way finish so he'd have to improve a lot more, maybe another seven or eight pounds to win another big race like that. Maybe he could do that. He is a lot better this year than he was last year. I was glad he could do that because he is not the biggest horse in the world. He might have to go chasing next year if he doesn't match up with the big boys later on.
Thomas Mullins, trainer
