The winner today is clearly an exceptional horse. tough as well as classy, and I was pleased to get the forecast up with Fast Company. although as I'd backed that one to win at 14-1 it would have helped if the result was the other way round. I think Fast Company lost the race through inexperience and he was throwing his head up as they entered the dip and he could be a real threat come the Guineas. But for me Winker Watson remains my great ante post hope for the race and I wish you all the best for his progress over the winter.
