We were a little disappointed the last day (in Cork) that he wasn't closer, but there was a big swing around with the favourite (Solar Drive). There was 17lb of a swing and that made the difference. We rode him a little differently as well, we jumped him out, made the running and tried to stretch the favourite the whole way. Making the running seems to work for him. We would try him over a mile and a half again. It's a good stiff uphill finish here and he wasn't stopping. He handles soft ground well but I think he'll go on most ground, he mightn't want it firm. Wesley is back with us now and he's part of the furniture at our place. He's a great talent, a top-class jockey and we'd be hoping that he'll go close in the apprentice title race this year.
