She was game and tough to be fair,. To be fair the runner-up was tough too and that’s what made it a race. She came there and looked like she was going to win well and I thought the runner-up was equally as game. After she came from Ian McCarthy’s in the spring her owner Gary O’Hagan took her home for the summer. She’s back in since the end of July. She was ready for today but I do think with a bit of match practice under her belt she’ll come on again a wee bit. I actually had a mare in the point-to-point she won and thought she would have taken a bit of beating, and I was a bit disappointed. When I see how well this filly works and how well she’s run today the other filly of my own is probably still okay. They said themselves that they probably ran her back too quick in the bumper and to forget about it. Today was the plan. I’m not one for big plans and we’ll take it one day at a time.
