Ivanovich Gorbatov draws ahead in Foxrock
Really you should be talking to Joseph as he has done all the work with this horse. He's always been a natural jumper. He handled the ground but you would imagine that he will be a horse that will appreciate much better ground. Joseph missed doing the latest training course as he was away at the Breeders Cup but he will be doing the next one that comes up.
Supasundae leaves Concorde in his wake
Flemenstar is back as Curran opens account
He was off for a year and did nothing but walking and trotting. It was a long road back and Danny Hand rides him out every day. I feel sorry for Keith Donoghue who would have ridden him but injured his eye recently. With Un De Sceaux in the race I knew they would go a good gallop and that suits him. I thought we might be held going to the last but I saw the other horse getting tired and I knew our fella was as fit as he was for a long time. He's all heart. I only took out the licence in the summer and that's my first winner. I've three riding out at the moment. He could run next at Punchestown at the end of January but he's very ground dependant. It will have to be soft wherever he runs.
Long Dog teak tough in Foxrock
His experience was a big help, and he'd no trouble staying or jumping. He could come back for the Deloitte but he's had a busy time so we'll have to see. He's learning all the time, and the only reason we ran him in the summer was because he missed last season.
Copy That lands a gamble in handicap hurdle
Winsome Bucks a 50/1 shocker
He's a gorgeous horse, and has just taken a bit of time to fill in. He's had a few niggling problems like splints and sore shins. He should make a good chaser in time and has a nice pedigree.
