Simon Crisford Horse Quotations

Discreet Cat is a really promising young horse, but after assessing the situation, Sheik Mohammed has decided that he would prefer to give him more time. We see him as an important horse for Godolphin both later in the season and next year.

It will take a special horse to win from there. It was always going to be difficult. Now it will be much more difficult.

It may be that we'll have to change plans now. This horse is going to experience something he's never experienced before.

He ran well but he wasn't good enough today. He will be a nice horse next season but I wouldn't think he will be going for the Leger. The decision will be up to Sheikh Mohammed but there weren't any excuses today.

If he looks like he'd have a top chance in the Kentucky Derby, we'd like to take a chance. One day we'll have a horse that is suitable.
