After race at Leopardstown Sat, 4th Sep, 2010 (1st)

Seamus gave Cape Blanco a great ride and got the horse into a great rhythm. We always thought he was an unbelievably classy horse and he is more a 10 furlong horse than a mile and a half horse. He has lots of speed and, realistically, his courage made him last out the mile and a half trip in the Irish Derby. He moves brilliantly and has lots of options now including the English Champion Stakes and the Breeders' Cup in America.
