Winning Trainer: Chris Waller

On the winner: "He is a really progressive horse. Has taken him a little while to find the winner's circle. We sent him to Melbourne to do it. Had the confidence to bring him back for this race here. He is on his way now."

Next year?: "I'd like to push toward something like a Ranvet/Tancred Stakes. I think he would be better over 2400m. Tancred Stakes would probably be his plan in the Autumn."

How is Autumn Glow?: "She knew she had had a race. Had a good puff. Tried her heart out. Did us all very proud."

Winning Jockey: James McDonald

On the win: "He's a horse with his tail in the air and they've done a good job with him. He just never felt like getting beat, apart from just overdoing it the whole way."

On the horse: "I think he's going to develop into a pretty good horse. And with any give in the ground, he thrives on it."

"He's got a lot of learning to do. He's lightly raced, but he'll be coached through the grades and I'm sure he'll reach top level."

Beaten Jockeys:

Ethan Brown (Fawkner Park): "I think he struggled with this weight and in this going. Still a bit big I think. Yet to hit his straps. Heading in the right direction. Wasn't fully disgraced today."

Tom Marquand (Bois D'argent): "Didn't break the best. Things didn't go right the way around and off a back up."

Nash Rawiller (Huetor): "He has sort of shown he is back in form. The blinkers helped him."

Dylan Gibbons (Maison Louis): "Wheels spun on that ground. He was beaten very quickly."

Regan Bayliss (Palmetto): "Good honest run."

Tom Sherry (Redstone Well): "He has run super. Has gone really well."

Braith Nock (Firm Agreement): "Wasn't comfortable holding a spot. I just let him be. Quickened up nicely. Felt the pinch late. Can do more next start."

Rachel King (Imperialist): "Massive run. Had to do a bit of work from the gate. Brave to run second."

Tyler Schiller (Our Gold Hope): "I thought she did a good job. Just the awkward barrier and had to go a bit further forward than I wanted to. Stuck it out well."

Andrew Adkins (Trust In You): "Tried hard. Just a little bit wet for him."

Alysha Collett (Foujita San): "Pleasing enough run. Really hated that ground.

Zac Lloyd (Scarlet Oak): "Raced well. Good to see her racing well again. Appreciates the wet track as well."

Jay Ford (State Of America): "He was good. It was the hardest race he's ever contested. Acquitted himself well."

Jean Van Overmeire (Churchill's Choice): "Really disliked the track. Dipped and dived a few times. Lost confidence in doing so."
