After race at Leopardstown Thu, 16th Jun, 2016 (1st) 
With a little ease in the ground, over six or seven, he's a genuine Group 3 or Group 2 horse. He'll be very competitive in all those races,. Seamie gave him a great ride. He got the perfect position and slipped through lovely. A real fast six suits and an easy seven is probably ideal. He's a solid tough horse. He had a tough three-year-old year and had a few little setbacks. He was a good two-year-old.

He's a tough, hardy horse. We weren't sure before today if he would get a mile or not but after that you would think he will. He won very well on fast ground at Navan, and I'd say the ground doesn't seem to bother him. He's had a busy enough time for a young horse so we won't be in any panic with him now. He's had a tough race there and we'll give him a little break.

I'm delighted. He‘s a fast horse and five or six furlongs looks his trip. I think it would be tight to get a mile with him. The Phoenix Stakes looks the race for him.

I should have won on him the first time out but he was quite green with me and he nearly beat a nice horse of Ger Lyons' that day. The ground was too soft for him last time out. He wouldn't be out of place next week (at Royal Ascot).
