Coul Angel takes Bold Lad for Appleby and Marquand
He did it very well; I’m very pleased. I thought we’d win. It was a tough handicap. He’s been in great form and he’s been unlucky a few times at York. Tom gave him a great ride; he’s kept straight today as well which he doesn’t normally do. The key was being patient with him. After York I sort of looked at this race and thought it would be an ideal race for him. We’ve had a few runners in it before and it was the perfect race for him, and the track was ideal. We’re two from two here. We’ll see how he comes out of it and then have a look and see what else there is for him. I think he’ll keep improving; he’s not the full article yet. I think he’ll definitely improve again next year.
