Assistant trainer Richard Hannon Jr., son of trainer Richard Hannon Sr. said, "He's a lovely horse. He travelled very well today and has been most impressive all year. Some of the owners are quite keen to take him to the Breeders'Cup but we will have to see. He's adaptable and goes on any ground. Seven furlongs is his best trip but unfortunately there aren't many races at that distance so he often has to go up in trip. He's consistent and deserves this Group 1 win. He'll stay in training next year when the Lockinge could be an early target."
