Winning Jockey: Pat Maloney

"I was confident without being confident because he has been up for a while. Things didn't work his way in the Warrnambool Cup when I got poleaxed by Heart Of Puissance. He's one of those horses who prefers to be on the outside of horses and building momentum.

"When I asked him for a sit and sprint the other day, he wasn't going good enough and he got in trouble because of that. Matt and I mapped out a plan pre-race to be positive and take up the lead as long as we don't have to burn ourselves too much.

"We controlled the race at our own tempo and a horse coming back in trip and having plenty of runs. He doesn't have a great turn of acceleration but with having had plenty of runs this prep I was happy to take off a little but earlier on him.

"They were at me pretty much from the 300 metre mark. It's the type of conditions out there, you've got the headwind, the Soft 7 in the straight to deal with. He held his gallop strong."

On the track: "I walked it after the last straight race and there's no difference really. I find it a lot harder coming off the back of them when there is a headbreeze. I was happy to lead because we had the wind at our back until we got into the straight."
