Winning Trainer: Les Ross
How much did you pick up today: "A cool $92,000. I have to thank the team at home because I've been on my holidays for two weeks, so my daughter and Donna have been looking after the horses. She stopped the other day but she definitely wasn't stopping today."
Tardy start: "I was a bit worried but she was thrown in at the weights and she went on with the job really well. Judging by the time, they don't run much faster than that!"
Winning Jockey: Vlad Duric
Nice to pick up the ride: "She may have been a bit light for Jimmy [Orman]. It didn't go to plan at the start, she anticipated the barriers opening and reared up. But I was able to rail through from barrier one, she was exposed late because it's a long straight here at Eagle Farm, but it's a good result for the team."
"She ran slick times the other day and I knew she'd take some beating over 1000 metres, especially with fitness on her side. She's a handy little filly and the team have done a great job with her."
