I'm delighted he won. He ground it out. His best form has been on fast ground. Maybe that's not as good as the form he showed in France, but I'm happy with him. He's best on fast ground. The ground has gone a bit there. It's a nice race to win. The Desmond is one of the old traditional races. Johnny gave him a good ride. It's nice to get his head in front again. He has lots of options. He will stay a mile, he's proved that there. He might go back for the Hong Kong Mile and the Breeders Cup is an option. He's in the Haydock Sprint and he could go for the Park Stakes. He'll be entered in the [Prix de la] Foret.
