That was grand. I was interested to see how he would cope, dropping him back to five. They went a really good gallop which was probably a big help as we know he stays six. I left him a little bit short today just to keep him a little bit fresh. I would imagine he would improve a little off this run. Whether we come back here or not, I'm not sure, I'll have to discuss it with David (Spratt, owner). He's not just an all-weather horse and long term we could look at something like the Scurry with him. He'll have a couple more runs before then. He's very tough, very genuine, and he'd go through the pain barrier for you. He has the speed for five furlongs and stays six, that's kind of what you want for the Scurry so that might be the long-term plan. J F Levins, trainer
