Upset result: "It was a heist, wasn't it? But you know it's a horse race, not a mathematical formula. So we get up every day and dream these dreams, and you know it's fantastic for the owners, big bunch, and the horse has spent his whole life earning $600,000, and he just earned another $600,000 in two minutes."
Rolled the dice in G1: "It was never at the start of this preparation for me to say I'll win the Might And Power, but two races I've watched over, one's the Underwood, and one is this race, and they can both turn up funny results. So I thought, well, it's going to be a small field, and he did get beaten in a Ballarat Cup over 2,000 metres as an immature horse. It's just one of those days where, like I said, it's not a mathematical formula. It's a horse race."
On the win: "We've got forty staff here and all our pre-trainers, all our equestrian friends. It is a big effort. Junior's great, all the staff are fantastic. And when the horse first got off the float, I said, well, it's a big day."
Like anybody, if they leave me alone, I can just train the horse. I can't put it in formula what you do sometimes as a trainer, but you know we dream dreams, don't we?"
Winning Jockey: Blake Shinn
On the tactics: "I knew it had to be right to beat Treasurethe Moment, and obviously, Buckaroo got the utmost respect for them, and realistically, he's not a proven weight-for-age horse until today.
"So, we were going in a bit of the underdog, but as we've seen time and time again in these small fields, it's quite tactical, and an upset can happen more often than not.
"We went in there with no pressure as the obvious leader, and look, I knew potentially the other riders were going to be more worried about themselves, and Globe's a natural front runner, and what a thrill to be able to pull it off."
On the win: "I think it was Treasurethe Momentt at the turn, about the 400 (metres), but I knew the run that I had, I saved something up for the last 300, and I got into change to his offside fore about the 250, and then he went into overdrive."
"Full credit to the horse, he gave me a lovely ride; great work from the trainers Mick Price, Michael Kent Jr. This is our second Group One winner together this season, and they've been great supporters of mine.
"This ownership group, Roll The Dice, they put a lot of people into the game with their syndication. And since I've come back to Australia, they've been big supporters of mine and just great people. So it's lovely to be able to reward the big ownership group here today."
Beaten Jockeys:
James McDonald (Buckaroo): "I was happy with him, I thought he was just a tad below his best because he was there to win and he just grinded it out, a bit one-paced."
Jamie Melham (Hezashocka): "Ground was just way too firm for him."
Damian Lane (Treasurethe Moment): "She travelled comfortably throughout, I thought I had the race won at the 600, I just had to bide my time and go when it was right, and then upon straightening I was beaten. She really laboured late, which was really unlike her. Normally when she travels that strong she really quickens, so first thoughts are disappointing without dissecting the race, going through the sectionals and everything like that, but I would expect at her best she'd go past Globe."
