He was very good. He was very green and Shane said he got himself into a place he didn't want to be because they'd gone very steady and he thought 'oh god they are going to sprint now' but he was good when he pulled him out,. He really quickened up well, he quickened up like a good horse. He's going to be a nice staying horse. I don't know where he'll go, we'll wait and see. He did that really well. We've always thought he was nice and he is in the Irish Guineas and the Derby. He's got a few good entries. We've been waiting all year for him. He's won now and we'll wait and see.
