@BenCoen2 @NaasRacecourse @JohnnyMurtagh Johnny Murtagh:“the blinkers are a big help. He worked in them the other day and Ben said he gets through the ground really well. “There is a five-furlong race next week in Down Royal and we’ll probably let him go again. We’ll keep him busy while the ground is soft.”
