That's great. He got into a lot of trouble the last day at the Curragh and we fancied him today. He jumped very quick at the Curragh and Colin made a decision to take him back, but when he took him back he could never get out after that. He did come home really well. I bought him at the breeze-up sales. I'm delighted for the owner because it's his first venture on the Flat. Colin said the saddle went back and he plunged for the first furlong today, he was thinking 'what's going to happen now'. It's great to have Colin on your side, he's a lovely fella along with everything else and we get on very well. He's dead straight to deal with and doesn't pull any punches. I leave it up to him and told him to ride him whatever way he wanted. He knows more about riding than I do. I suppose you'd have to look at the final now. The other fella (Helvic Dream) is there as well. This lad mightn't handle real soft ground whereas the other horse would handle all sorts of ground. Noel Meade, trainer
