Winning Trainer: Mick Price & Mick Kent Jnr (Mick Price interviewed)
“I say it all the time in Melbourne, they want to lead, stack up and 13, 13, 13 and all it does is create muddling crap run races.
“He (Lane) was smart enough to see how stupidly slow they were going and seize the race. Albeit that he was deep early, I thought it was a big tick for D Lane.
“She is a beautifully big staying filly. I think there is a bit of Zabeel in there and a mix of pedigree but she is a beautifully big, clean-winded staying filly and I think she’ll go into the Oaks from here.
“We always wanted to go to 2000 metres which is why we didn’t run her in the Thousand Guineas. I thought she’s still learning, she’s not the quickest out of the gates but I did ask Damien ‘get a man up’, put her nose in the ‘v’ and see if we can get a little bit tactical.
“I didn’t want to be out the back running home with a promising frun all the time. I suppose into the Oaks from here.”
Winning Jockey: Damian Lane
“She began a little bit sticky but I still wanted to be handier than what she had been in her runs. Unfortunately it didn’t work out for me and I thought it could turn out to be a very poor ride.
“I just waited until we got to the top of the hill and the tempo really came out of it. Going downhill I just let her stride.
“To her credit when we really stepped it up 600 from home, 400 from home again, not often a three-year-old filly can do that. Tough effort.
“She (then) relaxed and I was able to pick up again on her at her own tempo.”
