He’s fast. If anything is in front of him, they are going too quick!. Joey said where he wins his races is between the two pole and the one. I was a little concerned about the ground drying out, but I walked it and was happy enough. It is what they are calling it and is not a summer good to yielding. There is plenty of juice in it. Five is his thing and I wouldn’t like to take on Ger’s horse over six. We’ll keep him going for a little bit and then give him a break and maybe aim for the Flying Five which has a habit of coming up soft.

I’m delighted for his owner Seamus McGrath. He’s actually working tonight — he foals for Croom House. He loves to have a horse and every one he’s had with me has won. He’s often his own worst enemy running free and today we decided to ride him a bit handier, and it worked out. I’d say when he learns to settle he’ll get a mile and a quarter, and he’ll have a bit of fun with him.
