Winning Trainer: Peter Moody & Katherie Coleman (Coleman speaking)
On the win: "Very rewarding and a nice ride there from Luke and nice to see her get another win on the board for the Blueblood team.
Tactics: "We just left it completely up to Luke. He knew where he wanted to be and to try and stay off the fence if he could, so it worked out really well.
"He navigated a path through and still stayed to the good ground."
Future plans: "We'll see how she comes through this. She's only third-up this preparation, so hopefully we can continue to build on this and plot a way forward."
Winning Jockey: Luke Nolen
On the path to victory and suitability of that race: "We zigged and zagged a little bit but ultimately she was good in the end.
"She had no weight, we had a good speed, we got a chance to blend just forward of midfield, travelled like the winner and she done a good job.
"Her first two runs were sound this time in, but she was probably peaking for this one third-up."
What's she like as a mare: "I don't know a lot about her, I'll be honest with you. She's a bit quirky and I don't have to ride her too much home. I'm happy to ride her raceday, but I like the fact that off that good speed, once she sliced through, she showed a real devastating turn of foot.
"Placed to advantage, I think she could probably rise up to a little above this, so I'll leave that in the capable hands of Kat and Pete."
