An outstanding individual. He puts me in a good humour when I see him every day. He reminds me so much of his sire, who was one of the best.

I’ve three Harry Angel yearlings — muscular types with strong hindquarters and plenty of bone. They look early and speedy. Because of them, I’m sending another mare in 2021.
