"She got a bit further back than we had anticipated in the early stages. But she's a very adept mare on wet going, and when she got a bit of clear room she really stretched out."

"Particularly the fillies who go well on the wet, the big difference is their ability to skip across the ground whereas heavier horses just tend to sink into the ground. I can't help but think she'll run out a strong 1200 metres, maybe we'll have a look at a race like the Moreton Cup with her. But we'll get her home first and take a look over her. We just want to take her to wherever there's a wet track really. There are options in Sydney but we'll keep our eye on the weather and go wherever it's bad."

"I think she'll be around for a while, she's come up well this prep and it's very exciting for her owners. She's probably not a Group horse on dry ground, but in the wet she grows another leg. She's also very tough, when she got into the bumping duel I was pretty confident she would come out on top. She's got that tenacity you need, and she's a lovely mare to have anything to do with."

Winning Jockey: Jason Collett

"I've had a couple of horses that go well in the wet today, and it's made my life a lot easier. She won it easy in the end, but we go into a bit of a bumping duel. She's probably not the biggest horse so I was a bit worried when she got squeezed, but she picked up again and I love the way she travelled."

"She was so effective and efficient on the ground, she's a lovely mare and it was nice to win some black type for Joe and her big group of owners."
