Forty-rated filly causes Cork surprise
would you believe that wasn't a surprise as she works really well at home. She has been tricky at times in her races, is a bit fussy and you have to keep her sweet so we put the visor on today. We changed things, jumped forward and tried to keep it simple and Nathan (Crosse, winning jockey) gave her a peach. She had a few average runs last year and kept dropping down the handicap. It took me two runs to get a handle on her and the head gear worked out. I had a chat with Mark Bird (handicapper) before racing and asked him not to drop her any further as she'd fall out of the page soon, being rated 40. She has plenty of ability at home, works very well and we'll look for something similar again.
