Very happy for Ellis, he’s been working very hard so he deserves some luck coming his way. I hope he can continue to improve,
It was a very pleasant surprise to see the horse [win] — I really thought [Solid State] was in a different class. So, for us to win that race, we’re very, very happy,
I’m very relieved and very happy. Lots of love to my family for pushing me for this fight. It’s special. It means a lot to me,
Dancing Classics was a little bit disappointing last start and I said ‘right, you’re having a lend of us, so time for the blinkers’. Don’t forget, this is a horse that was off for two seasons before he ran and won his first start for us,
That celebration was from the heart — I’ve got so much pent-up feeling, this is all so stressful and as much as I try to hold it all in, sometimes I have to release it and I am what I am. I’m in a good position and very happy with where I am — I’ve still got a lot of bullets for the last two days as well,
It was a very nice ride and he’s a young horse, carrying 135lb when you’re a three-year-old, even though it’s Class Four it’s very tough in Hong Kong when you’re against older horses. So, it was a very close finish and I’m very happy I put my head in front of Mr Hayes,
