If everything continues to go as planned, we'll be there.

The Canadian government continues to say they will not help us if we go to war with Iraq. However, the prime minister of Canada said he'd like to help, but he's pretty sure that last time he checked, Canada had no army.

He has the most arrogant personality. The way he'll look you up and down, it's unusual in a horse. You go in and he looks at you as if to say: 'Feed me and get out'. He has a huge ego, pumps himself up. He looks down on people and looks down on horses. On the gallops, when he lies up with them doing a half-speed, he'd be herding them.

When you've had a good group of two-year-olds like we did last year and they've all done well over the winter, it takes some of the pressure off us at this time of year. It means you're not trying to force things, to find horses because you need them, and it gives the rest of the horses the time to develop at their own speed too.

We've been happy with him since his win in the St Leger and he's in good form.

We're going to hope he adapts to the dirt.
