From the connections
“Hardy Warrior has good form in the book. I thought he might need the run today to be honest but he does like soft ground. It's nice to get him started and he'll step back into a group race of some sort now. All of his runs have been good, he didn't have a bad run really and he handles soft ground. I'd say he will [step into a Classic trial], that would be the obvious step for him. Declan said he feels like he'll get ten furlongs anyway - Joseph O'Brien, trainer.”
