Winning Trainer: Mathew Ellerton (rep Leah Ellerton interviewed)
On pre-race confidence: "She was really good, we thought she'd go well because she's been trailing really well at home, done everything right so we were very confident today."
Winning Jockey: Damian Lane
On the mare: "She's just come back a better horse. She's been going great at home, trialled up really well and I noticed the same myself, zero (wins) from four first-up and none under 1200, but we were still really confident with her because she's just been going really good.
"It was good to see her put it into place raceday and hopefully can be in for a really good prep."
Next steps: "Maybe a stepping stone over 1200 or 1300 next start and then hopefully get her into some Black Type races."
