Winning Trainer: Robbie Griffiths & Mat de Kock (Mat speaking)
“She’s been running fantastic races without winning. Really chuffed for her today.
“She enjoys the soft going and the way the race panned, it worked out perfectly. She’s the type of filly that likes to get to the front late so she had a lot of horses to get past and she used the whole straight to do it.
Leilani Series Final in two weeks: “That’s exactly where we’re headed. She’s a tough filly, she’s had a long preparation but the team has done a good job. Adam Bodey, her regular rider, rides her beautifully in the mornings.”
“It is a pity Carleen (Hefel) couldn’t ride her as she’s injured but this is great for Alana.”
Winning Jockey: Alana Kelly
First Flemington winner: “It’s very good to get it for the team. Very exciting.”
“Carleen has definitely been doing the best she can with the horse and she’s just been running into a couple a bit better than her. But today she hit the line really well.”
