“(It’s) Not relief but a good benchmark performance for us. It was good to get that one out of the road. Now I know where the rest of them sit and I’m not telling you if you ask me.
“It was a good level to see where some of our others are. We’ve got a few lined up over the next couple of weeks and I’m happy.
“His first jump out was pretty impressive. One of the part-owners, Gary Lechte, texted me a four letter word - it wasn’t ‘wow’ but it was something like that.
“He trialed up enormous and he did everything right and got here today and did everything beautifully well.
“You never quite know with them when they’re at home and then you come to race day and you parade them. I was impressed the way he paraded and looked so well. He got the job done.
“I thought Jye might’ve given him a bit more of a dig out of the gates. He was a bit casual bit the horse took a couple of strides to get into his gear where at home he normally hits the ground running.
“I thought he’d jump and lead. He didn’t panic, he waited and pushed ‘old mate’ out of the road and the rest was history.”
Next: “Don’t know. Every week now there’ll be a good horse coming out and winning a good two-year-old race. Next week we’ve got the Blue Diamond Preludes and we’ll be talking up something else.
“Don’t know. Just want to go home and see how he pulls up. It was a great effort and well done to all the connections.”
Could he go straight to the Blue Diamond: “It is a fair question but this was a 1000 metre race around Caulfield and the Blue Diamond in 1200. There’ll be a full field and about ten times the pressure of today.
“There’s a little bit to go yet but winners are grinners and we’re happy.”
Winning Jockey: Jye McNeil
“That was pretty straightforward. He’s a big strong horse and we used that to our advantage right on the point of the turn.
“Save him to get that clear run in and after that I took a few strides to keep him balanced and was hopeful that he’d let down well and he put them away nicely.”
How he felt when he let go: “Explosive. He was fantastic the way he let down and he feels like he’s a class horse so he’ll keep progressing from here.”
