After race at Dundalk Fri, 5th Apr, 2013 (1st)

I'm delighted with that. We thought he might be a French Guineas type of horse and looking at that I'd say he'll get a mile and he loves fast ground.

After race at Curragh Sun, 10th Jun, 2012 (1st)

We are delighted. The ground was a big worry and I'm pleasantly surprised he went on it. We always thought he was a fast horse. When our horses met the soft ground at Leopardstown on Friday you saw what happened (put in disappointing performances). We think he might be a Royal Ascot horse and we will look at the Windsor Palace or Norfolk Stakes now.
