he handled the ground a bit better than I thought They probably went a bit quick, I'd say, and set it up for him sitting out the back. He won on the Flat here at the end of April last year so we might come back for that race all being well.

I was very worried beforehand as we had a bad virus in the yard in January and I've only had two runners back since they got sick. Ah Littleluck in Limerick the other day was very disappointing and we were nervous for that reason. This fellow seems to be okay away. Until I saw them running well again you wouldn't know. Otherwise we would have been very strong on this fellow.
