Winning Trainer: Annabel & Rob Archibald (Annabel speaking)

"Tood (Pollard) just pointed out to me that we think it is the first stakes race he has run in. I don't know how we've avoided it with his rating.

"Great ride by Rachel. Once Economics missed the kick I thought we'd probably have the lead. We'd be spacing his runs but a great job by Todd and the team up here. He's a real stable favourite and a flagbearer for the team up here - normally offseason.

"To win a stakes race during the carnival is great for the owners.

"He's very well named and very good looking. We'll find another race for him in a couple weeks."

Winning Jockey: Rachel King

"First time sitting on him and I said to Annabel it is like sitting in a big armchair. He does everything right. He jumped well and probably took a stride to get into his stride but a beautiful rhythm and just kept building.

"With the 53 (kilos) on his back I knew I could push the button a little bit earlier than normal and he just kept finding."
