Winning Jockey: Teo Nugent

What did you think of that: "He's a very tough horse. Each time the bar rises, he keeps delivering. It nutted out perfect today. There was good speed. I ended up behind the horse I wanted to follow, Zac Spain's and Phillip Stokes', and it took us where we wanted. I pushed the button at the top of the straight and he really delivered for me and when the pressure was on late, he really delivered again. He's got plenty of upside. He's so versatile. He'll get out to a mile in time. He settled well and is a pleasure to deal with."
