He feels more a Sires or Champagne Stakes horse so I've told David (Hayes) I'll probably ride Boom Time Savings next week.

She was just cruising. I had such an easy run it was almost like on my bike.

What a great mare - she's just unbelievable. She was cruising, just off the bridle.

I thought he felt sore and my only concern was for the horse's welfare.

This horse can win the Cox Plate and the Melbourne Cup next spring. He's such a tough little horse, he's so genuine. They tried everything to beat him but he was just too good for them.

The other horse (Paratroopers) was coming back to him. It was a great win but the Cox Plate is a much tougher assignment for him.
