Quotes

Quotes on Mange Tout (FR)

She did everything wrong the last day so we said we’d drop her in, get her settled today, and see how we go. It was a good performance and I’m absolutely delighted,. I said to Jack that she didn’t jump great but he said when he pulled her out and gave her a bit of room she was very good over the last two. That’s what you want. She settled better today. She put lengths between them very quick from the last to the line and I’d imagine she’ll go to Leopardstown now. We’ll dream for another while. I’m sure there are a lot of good ones (juvenile hurdlers) still to come out. I haven’t too many of them, she’s as good as we have at the moment.
