We thought this lad was very good from day one. His first two runs were disappointing but we knew what was wrong, he had a slight wind issue, and we corrected that after the Marble Hill. Everything is ahead of him and we think he'll be a hell of a horse next year. That's as soft as he wants it. For a big horse he likes to flow along on good ground. We thought he was a minimum Group 3 horse and thought it was only right to let everyone know about the wind-op beforehand and know where we are with him. I put him in the Mill Reef at Newbury and anybody who had a look at the entries would have a fair idea what we thought of him. I'm delighted to win our first group race. I had him in the maiden here as well. The original plan was to go for the Round Tower, as I thought he might be a couple of bits of work short, but he did a bit of work the other morning and we were happy with it so decided to come here while the ground was some bit in his favour. We'll see how he comes out of this and the ground will be a big factor. If he comes out of it well he could go for the Round Tower or could wait for the Mill Reef. Darren Bunyan, trainer
