Mon, 4th May, 2026  Berto Ramirez He does appreciate that better ground, we ran him on softer ground through the winter, and the lads were hoping that he would get into the Fred Winter. It was on softer ground than he would like. He had some nice runs and just missed out on the Fred Winter, so they gave him a spin around in the Triumph just for a day out. This is much more back to his own level of stuff today, but he did it well and travelled well. You'd like to think he would be able to do something on the Flat as well - because we tried to get him into the Fred Winter, he's probably fairly exposed mark-wise over hurdles, so we had to come back for a maiden. We'll see where he goes, there's rated novices and things for the summer. I'd say mixing and matching - the lads probably prefer hurdling to the Flat. That will be the priority, or we will aim that way. I'm sure the Flat will definitely feature along the way too.

His agent Dave Keena recommended him, so I watched a couple of videos and liked what I saw. When I was riding, I loved to be handy around here so that's where I wanted Jamie to be. He's a very honest horse and he'll probably mix it. He has run over fences, but he's a bit handy-sized for that, so we'll probably stick to the Flat and hurdles.
