After failing to attract a bid at the Newmarket Sales I offered to train Tudor Jig for Sir Edwin McAlpine. He won four times on the flat, including the Northern Free Handicap at Newcastle, before contesting the 1977 2000 Guineas. He also ran in the Dante Stakes at York where he finished fourth, having not stayed out the trip. Switched to hurdling he made his debut when unplaced at Market Rasen, before wins at Wetherby and Teesside. He was top weight for the 1978 Lincoln but after running poorly at Newcastle he was withdrawn from the race. He made a final appearance on the racecourse at Newbury in 1980 where he was unplaced before retiring.
