Winning Trainer: Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott (Adrian speaking)
On dominance of stable’s juveniles in feature races so far this season: “It’s fantastic to see. We’ve had some great support so I’m very thankful to everyone who’s been able to support us throughout the year and the team at home that’s worked so hard to educate these horses. We like to make that a big part of our stable and the education of these young ones and it’s great to see that the results are there.”
Right horse for this Inglis race: “The added bonus of the ladies bonus, and he won so well on debut it was hard to ignore this race. I’m so proud of the horse, the way he won today. Obviously from a wide draw, he was a little bit on the back foot out of the gates but he settled well, covered a bit of ground, and it was great to see how strong he was through the line.”
How Fully Lit stacks up against the likes of Storm Boy and Shangri La Express: “He’s certainly going in the right direction, that’s for sure. Obviously it was a restricted race today so we’ll sort of look at the options, whether we do tempt a Blue Diamond.”
“We kept him in calculations there. He may stay here in one of the Slipper lead-ups, just keep him at home and look at one of those lead-ups and give him that opportunity to see how he does stack up against the grade. Because every time we’ve raised the bar he’s responded in a big way.”
Winning Jockey: Regan Bayliss
On the win: “Very tough win. I got more confident as the day grew on, just how the track was racing that I didn’t need to find that fence. I was quite happy giving him a bang out, and I was so confident in the horse I was happy to sit three-deep and just get him into a rhythm. It was a really tough effort today.
“He stepped on terms. Even if you watch his last start, he’s quick but he’s not electrifying quick. I think he’ll be better over the six furlongs where he can find that better rhythm. He’s a tough horse and he’s done a great job. There’s not a lot of him, just all heart.”
On Fully Lit’s potential: “There’s no ceiling on this horse. I just think that he’s going to keep improving and, as I said, it was a gutsy win.”
Beaten Jockeys:
Dylan Browne McMonagle (Odinson): “He has run well. Wanted to stay in the straight in the middle but it didn’t work out that way.”
Chad Schofield (Rue De Royale): “Very good run. Followed the winner. Chased hard and will improve from the run fitness wise.”
Tommy Berry (Beer Baron): “Just wasn’t the same horse today. Only young and might want a bit of time.”
Ben Melham (Zestiman): “Good run. Had a sweet trip and ran well.”
Tim Clark (Trunk): “Just raced way too keenly in the lead.”
Dylan Gibbons (Thundering Soul): “Really nice horse. He's very raw. With some time and a bit of ground, he's got something to offer.”
Zac Lloyd (El Morzillo): “Very nice filly. I’m sure she will be back and win some of these races. Very unlucky.”
Tom Sherry (Nymphadora): “Good effort off one trial. She will improve from today. She held herself in good account today.”
Kerrin McEvoy (Express Yo'self): “Just struggled at the trip.”
Jason Collett (Rag Queen): “Really strong late. She is so green and raw still so great to see the way she is finishing off. She has a lot of growing up to do but she was really strong late. She'll be worth the wait with the engine she's got.”
Ashley Morgan (Winning Proposal): “She ran excellent. Pinged the gates and got a lovely spot through the run. Followed the winner through. She was great and will be better next prep.”
Reece Jones (Art's Alive): “Began like a rocket. Just probably peaked on the run first up.”
Sam Clipperton (Bella Khadijah): “Poor behaviour at the barriers ruined any chance she had.”
Jay Ford (Catonahotinroof): “She gave me a nice feel going around to the gates but I'd say it's all just happened too quickly for her. She wasn't ready for a high pressure race like that.”
