200 wins for the season including a treble today: “What better group of owners (to do it with). They’ve been big supporters of the stable and great friends.

“This horse has been a bit unlucky. Has been crying out to win a race but a beautiful ride by Johnny. He neve moved on hit and looked like he was a bit far back but he knew the horse well and really bridled up underneath him.

“It’s a credit to the team to get that amount of winners for the season. Certainly very proud of them and what better place to do it than here at the ‘Bool.”

At the top of the straight: “It looked like he had enough horse underneath him and when you’re travelling that well you can sort of make your own gaps. I didn’t think he would let it go without making a gap but a beautiful ride and he was always in the driver’s seat.

New goals: “It’s always good if you reach them before the end of the season. And how good is Johnny Allen going? He rode four winners yesterday and hopefully he can ride four today.”

Winning Jockey: John Allen

“Jumpers, flat horses, no matter what they have they do a good job with it. She was primed for today. She ran super first-up, had a good run today and found the gap at the top of the straight and she was able to sprint through.

Top of the straight: “I was travelling well but I could see Perfect Zed (nearby). I looked to pop out initially but I was struggling a little bit and Joe (Bowditch on Perfect Zed) was struggling to hold his spot a little bit so I was able to nip up there and she was going good enough to take that gap and was too good for them.”
