Lovely. I don't usually back horses that short, but I was on big time today.

Congratulations to connections !!

He's still learning but he's a natural front runner in the making as he settles in front at home. Once he goes over a trip of 3m plus he will win some nice races.

Yeah. Doesn't seem to love company. But clearly more races to be won. If I'm honest first few runs were green and I wasn't sure..I don't get benefit of seeing work and stuff. Certainly a horse there. How nice to get a first TH winner. Well done yourself and Paul.

It's not that. He's just very competitive, that needed to be harnessed. You have to train their minds as well as their bodies. The raw ability was there on his bumper run so it's small steps along the way. He's far from the finished article but there's a big engine there, an even bigger heart and a big will to win. I've had horses that cost a fortune who had none of that through my hands.

There's a lot more to come with this horse .He just needs the time to develop properly. Most horses don't get that for a number of reasons .

It was Robicheaux7

I can soon put a stop to that!

That is also my nap. It will probably start 1/5 but I need to get off the mark for July.

Happy Independence Day everyone.

Did the Americans not make a mistake by breaking from British Rule and self-governing?

I sometimes think about that with my own Homeland, Ireland.
