Winning Trainer: Danny O’Brien

“It was a messy race for her. She got back and was following Lady D’Oro that wasn’t taking her anywhere so coming to the 600 (metre mark) she had to pop out and make her own run and she got there quickly and seemed to have them covered pretty quickly, too.

“She’s been a very consistent horse. Before today she’d run first or second nine times. She’s got a lot more seconds that firsts but she’s put two wins together now and hopefully onto bigger and better things.

“I think we’ll stay around the mile for the moment. There could be an option to get to 2000 metres again but she strikes me as a strong midfield miler.”

Winning Jockey: Jamie Kah

“I probably wanted to be a tad closer after last start on her but it was going to work out like that today. Nothing was taking us anywhere so sometimes you have to get a little bit messy to ride and win on them.

“I thought I had the best horse underneath me so I’ll just trust that she’s good enough and she was.

“I said to Danny that she had an electric turn-of-foot today and probably spacing her runs a bit and that cut in the ground really suited her.

“I thought last start she was probably a little bit plain on the run she got but she’s obviously taking a lot of improvement out of that and confidence.

“She ran absolutely super and she’ll win more this prep.”
