Winning Trainer: Ben & JD Hayes (Ben speaking)
“That was fantastic. She was a filly that we purchased from New Zealand from her race form and we’ve had a lot of success with New Zealand horses lately with Mr Brightside, Super Thief and now her.
“I thought it was a great ride by Luke. Big congratulations to all the staff at home. To get these rewards is really big for us.”
First Cox Plate: “My memory was when Fields Of Omagh won. I was 16 and he just fell in in the Cox Plate and I remember Dad nearly fainting on top of me.”
Winning Jockey: Luke Nolen
“They’re doing a good job, both Benny & JD. Some of the nice ones go to Dad (David) in Hong Kong but with the team they’ve got there they are doing a hell of a job.”
The race: “On paper there was good speed and we were afforded a nice run. When she got to the front she was a bit like she worked here at The Valley on Tuesday. She was all at sea a bit.
“I think the penny dropped. I think they’re going to have some fun with this filly - it is all upside.
“She’s a stakes winner now and what she has been able to do while having a look around and doing a few things wrong and still win was very encouraging.”
Rode Black Caviar to win this race: “They changed this race. It used to be in August. Now it’s on Cox Plate Day.”
