he's great! That's seven runs, four wins and three seconds and to win today was remarkable considering he jumped left. Guitar Pete got to him but he pulled it out again and he's becoming a good horse now. The plan today was for Guitar Pete to come and get us. We didn't do that last time when we 'sat' and he got to us too easily. He's probably slightly better going left handed and he'll get a break now. He's is fully entitled to go for the Fred Winter but we'll see what rating he gets; he's not big and wouldn't want a big weight. When he won on the Flat at Hamilton he hung left; he may have a little issue with his fetlock or something and we have time now to try and get that right. John C McConnell, trainer
