GOLD STANDARD |
Joshua Parr |
The horse has been physically good for a long time but mentally hasn't worked out what to do so. He's put everything together today and he's won like a nice horse. |

SANCTIONED |
Hugh Bowman |
Very pleased with him. First time he has been ridden quietly and it took me a while to get into a rhythm but once he did he raced really well and I'd expect a good showing from him next time. |

ADDICTIVE NATURE |
Tim Clark |
He had a lovely run. He relaxed a lot better in the race but I feel he didn't stretch out as well today on that firm track. He's only in his first preparation and he has a bright future ahead of him. |

Ran well. First time at the trip so I just had to ride him to settle. The race got away from me when the winner dashed but I was doing my best work over the last furlong and a half. |

ACE HIGH |
Tye Angland |
Went well. They didn't go as quick as I thought they would. It took him a while to balance himself but he hit the line strong. |

Just lacked a turn of foot. |

THE MISSION |
Corey Brown |
It didn't look good but he was just really really fresh and when Tim Clark went to cross him down the back he hadn't really got mobile and once he got mobile he was just too hard too strong first-up. He was disappointing but he did it all upside down. Now he has the edge off him he'll run much better. |
