We would have settled for a dead-heat. It's great for Simon (Mulvany, of the winning owners the Catshipper Partnership) who is on the race committee here and sponsors the Fast Shipping Hurdle. It's a local winner for both me and Simon and Gerry Clarke as well. She's very consistent. She was unlucky at Ayr where she was just chinned and is very very game. She does her job every year and I'd love to have a few more like her. I thought the handicapper had been hard enough on her, giving her 9lb for Down Royal and 4lb for Ayr. I thought he had a hold of her. She's never won off anything as high. She'll get a run on the beach now (Laytown). We have nothing to lose and she handles Dundalk as well so could be campaigned there.
