He is a very impressive horse. The plan was to make the running if no-one else was ready to do so.
More Quotes from Luca Cumani:
It's a bold decision to run in the Classic, but one I totally agree with. He's a fully mature, street-wise horse, and if you didn't try the Classic with a horse like him, you'd never try it.Luca Cumani
He's trying the dirt for the first time, so whatever dirt turns up it will be new to him. Tomorrow we'll take him to the track to see how he likes it. He'll have a faster canter on Thursday.

He hasn't ridden for me before but there's always a first time. The horse can get a little edgy when the jockey gets up, but he is fine on the track.
Luca Cumani
The Americans are at home and we are away. He's had a change of scenery and a change in racing conditions. There's less pressure if he runs in the Classic. If you run him in the Mile, he has to win. If he runs in the Classic and doesn't win, we can blame it on the dirt. All in all, it's very difficult, but it can be done.
