He ran well at Killarney when he was going to finish second in a good race so stepping back to a maiden today we were always hopeful. He loves that good ground and he is crying out for every yard of three miles. It was his first time running over it but we always felt he wanted it. He got a great ride, a strong ride, from Paul.
