Winning Time: 1:38.12 Last 600m: 36.79
Margins: Dead Heat x Long Head
Winning Trainer: Annabel Neasham
On the win: “I walked onto the track and I just wanted to see how the horse has pulled up. I actually didn't think we’d got it.”
On the horse: “Unbelievable horse. Second up just two weeks from a run off a long layoff. The question is whether they give him a spot in the Cox Plate but they have to after that. He’s a Group One horse.”
On the owners: “We always thought he was going to be a really good horse here in Australia. It is great to win it for Australian Bloodstock. To win the Epsom for them is just so special.”
Winning Trainer: Gerald Ryan & Sterling Alexiou (Gerald comments)
On the win: “It’s better than the other way. It was a last minute decision. Ten to nine on Wednesday morning we decided to run and well, it’s been good.”
On the horse: “It’s good when you buy the horse as a yearling and bring him along. We’ve been desperate to win a Group One with him but I had basically given up hope. We’d been here three times at the mile and we had been found wanting but he stuck his head out today. He’s so honest. I think it’s just three times that he has been out of the first four. I wish I had more of them.”
On training a G1 again: “It’s our first Group One together (with co-trainer Sterling Alexiou). We had Ellsberg’s father, we bought him as a yearling, we bought him as a yearling, we paid a lot of money for him, there are good blokes in the horse with us, a great syndicate.”
Winning Jockey: Hugh Bowman
On his thoughts on the line: “I thought he (Brenton Avdulla) got the bob. I felt like it was a bob of the head margin. I felt like after the post I still had a margin on him, but on the line I wasn’t so confident. But there was a fair bit going on.”
On the tempo and training effort: “We’ve got a heavy track here, testing conditions for all horses and it was a solidly run event, which I really wasn’t predicting with the smaller Epsom field this year. But I thought that played into my horse’s favour.:
“I followed Brenton in the run, came out when I was ready and (trainer) Annabel (Neasham) has just done an amazing job with him to bring him back from a slight injury in the Chipping Norton. To bring him back to win at this level is a great training performance, but it’s no surprise because we know how good he is.”
Winning Jockey: Brenton Avdulla
On his thoughts on the line: “Half way up I thought Hughie was home and the closer we got to the line I knew I was coming strong and I thought on the post I got him. But racing is a funny thing. When I came back (to scale) I would’ve been shattered if my number didn’t come up and the longer we were here (waiting for a result) we both said to each other “I just hope for a deadbeat”.”
“It’s a Group 1 race, I only picked the ride up on Wednesday. He wasn’t going to run so we got him in last minute. I didn’t think he was well in at the weight but he was still able to share in a Group 1, so it’s amazing.
Beaten Jockeys:
Regan Bayliss (Nimalee): “Gallant effort from her. She just lacked a turn of foot compared to those who had softer runs. She has more in store for her this Spring.”
James McDonald (Icebath): “She ran well as always. Just Top Ranked left her flat footed and she just didn’t make up the ground. I was happy with her performance but still disappointed.”
Tommy Berry (Fangirl): “Wet track was a big concern going into it and played a big part today.”
Jason Collett (Kiku): “The mile at that tempo was too testing for her.”
Kerrin McEvoy (Hinged): “Great run by her. She is brave. Gave a good kick, fought hard but the others were that little bit stronger.”
Rachel King (Cross Talk): “Just raced very hard within himself early and didn’t finish off.”
Kathy O'Hara (Pippali): “Got really bogged down and hated it.”
Jay Ford (War Eternal): “Had a good run. He tried hard. Found a few better on the day.”

Points Of Interest
- No horse has done the Epsom/Caulfield Cup double in same year.
- Epsom/Cox Plate double – Nightmarch, Chatham, Noholme, Winx.
- Epsom/Doncaster (season) double – Dundee, Marvel, Chatham, Gunsynd, Super Impose, Winx, Happy Clapper.
- Marvel carried 64.5kg to win in 1891.
- Last true outsider to win was Final Fantasy when winning when the race was 1400m on the Kensington track at 50-1.
- One of the most famous winners was Shannon. He won in 1945 and then in 1946 under 9 stone 9, Shannon missed the start and did not move until the field travelled some distance. In the end he only just missed Blue Legend into second. It is said the starter failed to notice Shannon was not ready.
- Hartnell broke the famous Randwick mile track record winning the 2018 Epsom.
- Wide barriers are no hindrance with 12 of the last 18 being double figure draws.
- Private Eye did what Kolding did in winning the Queensland Guineas/Epsom double and attempted the same treble of the Golden Eagle as well but came 8th.
