After race at Killarney Wed, 18th Aug, 2010 (1st)

That was great, he's very progressive. Everything that could go wrong at Ascot did. He's tough and improving every month, he has a beautiful attitude and travels well and quickens well off the pace. He got a good ride tonight and we've no plans for him. Danny [Grant] thought he'd progress into a Listed or Group 3 type horse. He's a big horse and Danny said not to race him too often.
