“He’s very smart at home and has proved it twice now. He’s very talented and I was very impressed,” said jockey Seamie Heffernan.
“He’s very straightforward, very smooth. His most impressive aspect is that he knows he’s good and he doesn’t show it off.
“He doesn’t show it to you – until you press the button! He’s a very impressive individual.
“When they have a turn of foot like he does, a mile is not out of his reach, although that is a race for middle-distance horses, but a mile is well within his comfort zone,” said Heffernan.
