Winning Trainer: Peter and Paul Snowden (Andrew Angelone speaking)

What did you make of win: “That was very good. She’s very good out of the gates so we were worried that she would be exposed early. She did get some but she was still a bit green and once she found the rail she lengthened out out and let go.”

High opinion of her: “She a half to Pride Of Dubai by Deep Impact and is well bred and has alway shown something. Last prep she was still a bit green, but this prep she has taken steps and has gone on with it.”

Get over further: “Ollie said after her trial the other week that she would get up to a mile, but at the moment she’s suited at that 1100, 1200, 1300 metres. She’s still pretty fast, so we’ll let her learn and hopefully she can get up over further.”

Reason to take this long to make the track: “She’s only a petite filly. She’s definitely strengthened up from last prep. It was all about giving her a good grounding.”

Winning Jockey: Damien Oliver

On the win: “It was good. She’s a nice filly, still a little bit new but I liked the way she quickened up when I asked her.”

Talent that she has: “She’s still quite unexposed. That’s my first sit on her the other day. She pleased me there. She’s done well coming here today. There’s not a lot of her but she’s got more scope for improvement for sure.”
