“I think he was off-colour and Willie said to me that he was a bit down in himself after the race,” says Drew, “but Willie feels he can turn him around fairly quickly. Fingers crossed he can do that and he can still take his place in the Brown Advisory.
“Four and a half weeks out nothing is certain, but personally I have every hope he’ll make it to the Wednesday of the festival.”
Final Demand, who Drew owns in partnership with Caroline Tisdall, has drifted out to 4-1 with Unibet and BetVictor for the Brown Advisory, but his biggest supporter is not giving up as quickly as some people appear to have.
