Dodging Manikato: “A great performance by all my staff and my vets because she’s not the easiest at times but she’s a very good mare and we knew it was no fluke, the Newmarket, and we were happy to take them on today.
“We scratched out of the Manikato. I was with her when the lightning came and she really got a bit frazzled with the lightning above her, she didn’t eat.”
“So I got her there (the next day) and they didn’t upgrade the track so we pulled her out. That was the best decision.
Compared to Newmarket win: “I just thought that she got exposed a bit early. She’s one that she’s got a really good turn-of-foot but hasn’t got a long, long one. Today, she gutsed it out today as she did in the Newmarket.
“She was fresh today, she’s better on the fresh side. You learn more about them as you go along and I certainly learnt more about her today.
“This has been a great track to me. I’ve won a couple of Derbies, an Oaks, the Melbourne Cup, a couple of Newmarkets down the straight. We’ve won most of the Group 1s here and it has been a great track for me.
“I think it is the best track in the world.”
On Jamie Mott: “Everyone knows Jamie’s such a great horseman, such a great ride. He’s got a great set of hands on him and she can get tugging a little bit so it really suited her. I feel a bit sorry for Patrick Moloney, who’s sitting watching it. He would’ve normally been on her but for the suspension on Emissary in the Melbourne Cup.”
During the run: “It was a great effort, when you watch the replay she just kept coming and hanging on and for a while there I thought they were going to sprint away from her but she just hung on to them and really bulldogged to the finish.”
Winning Jockey: Jamie Mott
2x Group 1 winner:“Unbelievable. This is truly what dreams are made of. I was lucky enough to get my first Group 1 only a month ago and to think I’m here on Final Day going past Nature Strip, I can’t believe it.
“Callsign Mav was a special feeling but this just takes it to a whole new level.”
“I’ve got the kids here, Caz is here, mum and dad at home would be watching and all my family overseas would be watching. What a special moment and I can’t thank Mike Moroney enough.”
Underrated mare: All the talk was on Nature Strip and Giga Kick and our girl had done nothing wrong, she’s a very good mare. She was kind of overlooked a little bit but how tough is she?”
Fortunate to get the ride: “I must say I feel sorry for Patrick Moloney. He’s done all the work on this mare and he’s won a Group 1 on her himself and he got suspended during the week.
“Unfortunate for him but that’s racing and I was lucky enough that Mike and the connections gave me the opportunity and what a wonderful mare she is. She’s small and she’s tough.
On the run: “We began nice. The speed, if felt, was solid enough. I had the back of Rothfire probably for the first four or five hundred and then Luke Nolen (Rothfire) shifted out to meet Nature Strip and I lost my cover.
“To her credit from the 650 (metre mark) I have no cover but once she came under pressure she responded well and the deeper we got into the straight the stronger she got.
“I had a look over at the 150 and I was like, ‘I’ve got this big boy done’.
Beaten Jockeys:
James McDonald (Nature Strip): “He ran super. Very proud of him. Went down fighting.”
Damien Thornton (Masked Crusader): “Disappointing. Not sure what to make of the run.”
John Allen (The Inferno): “He wasn’t up to them today.”
Luke Nolen (Rothfire): “Honest effort. He always runs well.”
Brenton Avdulla (Paulele): “He stumbled out and that probably lit him up a fraction, but I reckon he’ll probably be better around a bend than up the straight.”
Ben Melham (Front Page): “Drew the wrong side of the track, but ran well.”
Nash Rawiller (The Astrologist): “My bloke was sensational. We tracked Nature Strip, came off his back and he was very solid right to the line.”
Mark Zahra (Baller): “He ran a super race. Very good.”
Jamie Kah (Bella Nipotina): “Just needed it a little bit softer (track) for her. She was strong then the last 100 she was taking short steps.”
Michael Dee (Levante): “Very good. Probably a shame she came off the bridle probably 100 metres too early and I thought we were in a little bit of trouble, but to her credit she kept trying very hard and fought all the way to the line.”
Tim Clark (Argentia): “She ran well. It wasn’t much of a gallop early and we probably got outsprinted a bit on the back-up.”
Craig Williams (Giga Kick): “He just didn’t turn up today. I was really managing him just to get him to run straight, he wanted to g really hard left on me when the pressure came on, so he’s done a really good job to finish where he did.”
Craig Newitt (Lofty Strike): “Went super. He’s a really, really nice horse. The horse I was following didn’t quite take him far enough. If it had taken him another 100 metres, I think he’s in it and it’s a completely different result. He’s a Group 1 horse for sure.”
