Winning Trainer: Grahame Begg

“She’s a very nice filly. I know she’s only come off a synthetic maiden win that she won by five (lengths) and the filly that ran second to her won by ten last night so it kind of franked the form a little bit.

“Very understated and we’ve given her plenty of time to mature. John Muir and Trish Muir, they’ll be over the moon. John is actually in Kentucky at the Broodmare Sale. He rang me this morning and said that it’ll be about 12:50am over there so I he might have a nice little message on his phone when he wakes up.

“We just rode her like the best horse in the race at Pakenham. The smaller field, but we didn’t want any bad luck so we decided to take luck out of the equation today.

“We drew a bit of a tricky gate so we had to roll the dice and go forward. As it worked out he was able to go three wide with no cover. Bloody good effort, second start in a race to be able to beat the colts and now she’s a listed winner.”

Next: “She might have a break because she’s only lightly raced and we’ll let things work out.”

Winning Jockey: Jordan Childs

Lunar Flare disappointment: “It’s a funny game, racing. Next minute you come out and ride a winner. Even though it is disappointing for her and the team, I’m glad this girl could come out and make it like that.


“She always gave me a nice feel throughout the race. I didn’t have much luck from the gate gettin in and getting cover but I just kept her nice and comfortable and when she was traveling into the straight as easy as she was, when I pressed the button she reeled them in.”

Potential: “We haven’t got to the bottom of her yet. She won her first start impressively and came out today and backed it up.

“Obviously it is a big step up from the maiden to coming here on a Saturday in a listed race, and to get the result, the world is her oyster.”
