I didn't see the race against Calgary Bay but his last run being in handicap company I'm inclined to forgive a novice any errors. Like I said, I think that was a good performance.

I do agree that Calgary Bay looked a natural around Cheltenham. I don't think the drop in trip will affect his jumping. I feel it's just a case of whether he is quick enough. I thought he was a little disappointing at Ascot, but he did lug left a bit that day.

Tatenen has always been too short for me, though I'm certain we didn't see the best of him at Leopardstown. My feeling about him is that he may need another year of filling out. I think he'll need further than two miles in time as well.
