"We had a conversation earlier in the week about the draw and it was James' idea as well to wait for this race.
"We got rewarded with a good barrier today. She leapt well and Ang had her in a good spot after 200-metres. She's a really good mare. Going through her grades so well.
"When she won the benchmark 70 here a few runs ago, we said she'd take part in this carnival and that is exactly what she is doing.
"Onwards to the Tiara in a fortnight. This mare will give it a hell of a shake. Mares like this in good form, I wouldn't swap her for anything in two weeks.
"Very heavy ground last time at the Gold Coast and back on a Good 3 today. We're thrilled to have a horse like this in our camp."
Winning Jockey: Angela Jones
"She is just brilliant. She is a jockey's dream. You can just put her where you want her. She has won on a heavy track this prep and now a good track.
"Really, you couldn't ask any more of her. Tony has done a splendid job with her since move to Queensland and she has really gone from strength to strength.
"Just incredible to string four together at a tough time of the carnival. Super effort.
"Today she was a little bit fresh. A tough tardy out but she is the sort of horse you can get her in deep and once you ask her to settle she just drops her head. The easiest horse to ride."
