It nearly all went wrong on my second winner, too, OSCARA DARA
I’d gone looking for a good one at the third-last hurdle flight I didn’t ever look like getting it and he just missed it a little bit.
For that reason I wasn’t of a mind to go sending him into the last and I’d say he just took his eye off it, looked up in the stands both on the approach to the hurdle and on landing.
That lost him concentration and in turn a lot of momentum when he landed and in fairness to the horse, he did extremely well to get it back and win.
I did think that we were beaten the way he came to a near stop but he’s pretty decent over hurdles and might not have the same scope over fences.
I’m not sure how good the race was but he’s got ability and he appreciated the step up to two miles five and I see no reason why he wouldn’t get further.
If he got three miles it would open up another avenue for him.
