Winning Trainer: Emma-Lee & David Browne (David interviewed)
“Very tough. I thought he’d run out of diesel in the end and he still got there. Pretty happy with that.
“He’s just one of those horses with a big high cruising speed. He’s still a big baby with a lot to learn.
“He’s getting his head in front when he needs to.”
<Keeping it open but possibly the Carbine Club Stakes next>
“At home, I think he could be a big chance in a race like the Levin Classic in March, something like that. A Group 1 race for three-year-olds so that could be something for him later on. It is just how far we push him now.”
Winning Jockey: Jordan Childs
“I got a good understanding of him and I knew I was on an extremely fit horse. We were able tot dictate our own terms a little bit and I was able to get going around the corner. He held them off well.
“He’s a horse that’s not going to win by far. I don’t think he’s quite there mentally yet. He’s still learning about his craft which is a very good sig because there’s plenty of upside.”
