Winning Trainer: Grahame Begg (rep by Rohan Hughes)

"Winners win, don't they.

"She has a great record and Grahame has been careful in the way he's raised the bar for her. I think he thought this preparation she'd go to a nice level and a race like this.

"We targeted this race a long way out. We wanted to go via the Coongy but he was very happy with her fitness and that was an extremely tough effort. She had to absorb a lot of pressure from the half-mile onwards but she's very, very genuine.

"It is a rare thing. Horses have got it psychologically. They are very competitive and in the end they're record shows it.

"Still very lightly raced and inexperienced. She's got good upside. She's a big, scopy Ace High mare and I'm sure in time with further development she's going to develop into a nice staying horse and the way Grahame has explained it, 12 months down the track she may have a role to play in the spring carnival."

Matriarch Stakes next: "That's been her grand final on the agenda this preparation."

Winning Jockey: Jordan Childs

"Full credit to Grahame and the team. It was a good training performance. It has been a while between runs and up to the 2000 (metres) today, she's a damn good racehorse. Does everything right, jumps well, puts herself on speed and makes her own luck.

"They took off early and we really had to dig deep because she came off the bridle quite soon but once she got her revs up, she kept going.

"She demolished the line then so I don't think going up in distance would be an issue.Very exciting horse for the future."
