“He switched off in the run. He relaxes really well. If he wasn’t going to get the (Derby) trip I think he would have run second but he toughed it out really well.”
Christian Reith (Astoria): “Gallant effort. The other horse just got us right on the line but really good.”
Michael Walker (Belfast): “Real good. Green. He ran straight ahead on the corners, didn’t really handle this way around. He’s a really good horse in the making but his temperament let him down today.”
Jason Collett (Weather With You): “Good run. One week back up to the Derby will do him good.”
Craig Williams (Mongolian Marshal): “I thought he acquitted himself well for his first run over here. I think he’ll come on in fitness because he was meant to run last week, the others just had a bit more firepower than him.”
Corey Brown (Our Mantra): “He didn’t run too bad but he was a bit outclassed there today.”
Tye Angland (Primitivo): “Tough run. He had no chance.”
Brenton Avdulla (Augustus): “He got into a lovely spot from the draw but he didn’t finish.”
Damien Oliver (Pissaro): “Just a bit one paced.”
Kerrin McEvoy (Tangmere): “One-paced coming home.”
Michael Dee (Octabello): “I think he needs to be gelded.”
Tim Clark (Bullet Shot): “He was a bit outclassed.”
Adam Hyeronimus (Yuralla Boy): “I thought he ran an honest race.”
