BEAU GESTE

Brenton Avdulla

He was good. I've got a bit of time for the horse – I won on him first start in a race. He bungled the start up a bit so I just tried to teach him to relax. He overdid it for a furlong and a half like a couple of us would have off a slow speed but he proved good enough.

2nd

OUR MANTRA

Corey Brown

Run super but he got galloped on in the first 100m of the race and it stirred him right up. It took his momentum and focus away but he went really well.

3rd

PARET

Hugh Bowman

He's obviously got talent – there's no question of that – but he needs to get into a pattern. He threw it away in the final stages so there's a couple of chinks in his armour at the moment.

4th

AONAIR

Glyn Schofield

She ran well. Box-seated, travelled keenly and probably wants further now.

5th

BRIGHT IDEA

Jason Collett

Nice run outside the lead but didn't have the finish of the others.

6th

MOLTEN

Kerrin McEvoy

Ran well, still a bit raw.

7th

CHARLIE CHAP

Tye Angland

He went well, he just wants them to roll a long a bit quicker for him.

AUVRAY

Glyn Schofield

I had to produce him earlier than I wanted to as I had no horse dragging me through but he fortunately tried his hardest and kept going for a nice win.

2nd

ADMIRAL JELLO

Corey Brown

He was crammed for room for about furlong in the straight. That was the most vital part of his race and he wasn't allowed to let down.

3rd

BROADSIDE

Tim Clark

Ran well. He was up a bit in weight today and that was probably the telling factor. He was brave.

4th

DEE I CEE

Adam Hyeronimus

Run well, he's just very one-paced. Looking for a bit further as well.

5th

DARABAD

Kerrin McEvoy

He battled, he's going to need to turn his form around. He never went when I asked him.

DON'T GIVE A DAMN

Kerrin McEvoy

Progressing nicely. He was better behaved today and that race at Randwick next start is going to be perfect for him.

2nd

DELIVERED

Kathy O'Hara

Nice effort. The winner was in a different class but his run was great.

3rd

MOTIME

Paul King

Very encouraging run. The horse is probably 6-12 months off but I couldn't complain about the effort.

4th

BONSLEY

Tim Clark

Over-raced but battled on well.

5th

MAJESTIC PEDRILLE

Brenton Avdulla

Perfect run, tracked the winner everywhere but just didn't run the 1500m.

6th

CATCH THE CULPRIT

Brodie Loy

Went well in the step up in grade. Will be better over a bit further.

7th

APOCALYPTIC FUN

Tye Angland

Disappointing. Had a good run behind the favourite but couldn't quicken.

8th

ONLY CHOICE

Corey Brown

Not good enough to bring to town.

9th

BELLA LA BELLE

Jay Ford

Tried hard but wasn't up to them.

10th

RISING KING

James Innes Jnr (a)

Landed in a good spot and pulled quite hard. It was a bit too far for him and he was well out of his grade.

ALWARD

Hugh Bowman

He's a nice progressive stayer. I think we'll hear a lot more of him. There was a lot more give in the track today and back to 2000m also helped. He's going to enjoy a high pressure handicap – I think he'll measure up in time.

2nd

UP 'N' ROLLING

Kerrin McEvoy

Ran well but the winner just got first run on me and he's been an unlucky second.

3rd

ZAUNKONIG

Tye Angland

Went well. Improved a lot from his last run. He relaxed with the blinkers off and worked home strongly.

4th

QUICK DEFENCE

Brenton Avdulla

I question him at 2000m at that level – probably better back to 1800m.

5th

IMANUI

Christian Reith

Ran all right. He got held up a little bit and then just grinded.

6th

ROMAN SON

Tim Clark

No excuses for him.

7th

PLOT TWIST

Mark Zahra

He ran OK. Will be better over a bit further.

8th

THEWAYWEARE

Jay Ford

Very disappointing. Travelled well in front but didn't fire a shot.

WASHINGTON HEIGHTS

Kerrin McEvoy

The horse is flying. He's loving it here and Gerald (Ryan) has got him in great form. There's no reason why he can't run in some nicer races over a mile now.

2nd

MIGHTY LUCKY

Chris O'Brien

Good run. Has improved immensely since first-up and he'll take a lot of improvement out of that one too.

3rd

IMPOSING LASS

Tim Clark

Rolled along nicely. She's going to be better suited back in mares' grade.

4th

LUBITON

Glyn Schofield

She took a trail today and hit the line better than I thought she would. Good run.

5th

DAWN WALL

Corey Brown

She was disappointing on face value. She had such a tough run first-up I think it may have flattened her a bit.

6th

EURO ANGEL

Brenton Avdulla

Disappointing. I had the winner outside me and the second horse in front of me but she was just a bit plain today.

7th

DARK EYES

Adam Hyeronimus

I thought it was a pass mark first-up racing against some fit horses.

8th

HEARTLINGS

Jay Ford

She had a good run throughout but just found herself wanting at that level.

9th

GOOD PROJECT

Hugh Bowman

He's a better horse ridden with cover but that couldn't happen from the draw. That said, I still think he should have raced better than he did.

ACE HIGH

Tye Angland

I thought I had an easy enough time in front, I knew I was going to get attacked but when Tommy came at me it really picked my horse up because when he got to the front he really switched off. It probably helped me, it got the bit back in his mouth. When I got to the corner I let him slide, gave him a good dig, and he responded well.

2nd

SANCTIONED

Hugh Bowman

I was very proud of him today, he was beaten fair and square, but his manners were much better and I thought his run had merit.

3rd

CORAL COAST

Brenton Avdulla

Went terrific, ended up outside the speed early and she just wasn't tracking well, I was going to run nowhere on the corner and it wasn't until I went back to the inside and followed the first two through she picked up well to the line.

4th

SULLY

Corey Brown

Ran well enough, he was very one-paced and didn't travel in the race. He never really hit the line but he whacked away, he's obviously looking for further.

5th

ASTORIA

Joshua Parr

Nice big horse, just not quite ready for a stop, start performance like today.

6th

BADGE OF GAMENESS

Mark Zahra

Went okay, still immature.

7th

AUGUSTUS

Kerrin McEvoy

He got back and was a bit one-paced coming home, he needs a bit more tempo on.

8th

COLESBERG

Jason Collett

Found the line nicely.

9th

COULTHARD

Tim Clark

Got himself a little worked up today, had a trouble-free run but wasn't quite up to the class.

10th

ALL DAY

Tommy Berry

Just went way too keen up in trip with the slow tempo, so just forget about the run.

11th

THY KINGDOM COME

Blake Shinn

He was disappointing, he didn't hit the line as well as I expected from the top of the straight.

TRAPEZE ARTIST

Tye Angland

This race has been a bit of a killer for me. I was caught three and four wide on Scissor Kick and got run down late by Hallowed Crown and on Press Statement we had no luck, so it's good to change that luck today.

2nd

CHAMPAGNE CUDDLES

Jason Collett

Great run. Found the line really well, just gave away too big a start.

3rd

MENARI

Joshua Parr

The seven furlongs is just a little bit hard for him.

4th

GOLD STANDARD

Tommy Berry

He went super. Feels like he's looking for a Caulfield Guineas trip now. He's going in the right direction.

5th

ASSIMILATE

Hugh Bowman

I was very pleased with his effort. We had no luck from the draw and that told but the horse ran very well.

6th

CHAUFFEUR

Brenton Avdulla

We were about to lob into a good spot but then we just got creamed after a furlong and then we were on the back foot but he plugged home all right.

7th

PERAST

Adam Hyeronimus

I thought he raced well but the opposition just had a better turn of foot. Once he gets up to 2000m he'll be right.

8th

DRACARYS

Tim Clark

Got found out at the 700m when they really cranked it up.

9th

PARIAH

Blake Shinn

Somewhat disappointing. We got into a nice spot from 1200, travelled well, but from the 500m when I started to feel for him he wasn't there today.

10th

MERCHANT NAVY

Mark Zahra

Copped a bit of interference early. Whether that explains his disappointing run I'm not sure – we'll see how he pulls up.

11th

FORMALITY

Kerrin McEvoy

After beginning nicely, I decided to offset the barrier by getting across but then the pace was too strong so she found it hard.

12th

SHOGUN SUN

Christian Reith

Just raced a bit flat today. They'll take him home now to give him a break and he'll come back stronger.

13th

THE MISSION

Corey Brown

He's not where he needs to be. He was very disappointing. He was a little bit keen, not as keen as he was the other day, but still very disappointing.

14th

DIAMOND TATHAGATA

Glyn Schofield

Got into a bit of trouble a furlong after that start but never balanced and never travelled.

DAYSEE DOOM

Andrew Adkins (a)

I was three deep, the tempo was nice enough for me to stay there. I didn't want to put any more pressure on because I was travelling well and she was comfortable, balanced and in rhythm. When I came to the turn she balanced up well and she showed that turn of foot that she can show. She burst away from them.

2nd

DIXIE BLOSSOMS

Corey Brown

Ran really well, she did travel three-wide but she had a trail. Loomed up to win but the stablemate was too good. She'll improve again though.

3rd

OMEI SWORD

Hugh Bowman

She's doing enough to give her a tick but she's a better horse than that.

4th

DANISH TWIST

Blake Shinn

Great run we were just relying on a bit of tempo which wasn't there today but she kept making nice ground.

5th

ZENALICIOUS

Tim Clark

Much better today, she'll be hard to beat in the Angst Stakes.

6th

BONNY O'REILLY

Jason Collett

Bit awkward away, I wasn't happy with the way she settled, it probably told that last 150m.

7th

MAGIC ALIBI

Jay Ford

Had a nice run outside the lead, travelled well, she ran as well as she could in that grade.

8th

BERRY DELICIOUS

Kathy O'Hara

Nice honest run from her, she's looking for a mile and a wet track but

Unfortunately, that's it for her she's going to the breeding barn.

9th

DENMAGIC

Kerrin McEvoy

Had a nice run but she didn't finish off. She's better than what she showed there today.

10th

SWEET REDEMPTION

Adam Hyeronimus

Everything panned out well, we had good control of the race, I gave her a breather mid-race but when the other horses headed her she put the flag up pretty quickly.

11th

SORT AFTER

Tommy Berry

She might be looking for the breeding barn now, she was very plain.

SIR PLUSH

Jason Collett

He's hard fit and on paper it looked like he would get an easy lead. And I didn't want to fight him because he's that type of horse - if you argue with him you're going to lose every time so it's just a matter of working with him.

2nd

HOGMANAY

Tommy Berry

Going well, very happy.

3rd

ZUMBELINA

Glyn Schofield

Tempo was really hot and it had me at my top the whole way. Took the dash out of me.

4th

SOUCHEZ

Corey Brown

He actually ran well considering the weight but the tempo didn't suit at all.

5th

WAYANKA

Brenton Avdulla

Went OK but with the way the race was run thought it sort of dragged the sprint out of him.

6th

DENPURR

Tye Angland

Thought she ran well but that just went too quick for her.

7th

IMPAVIDO

Tim Clark

He ran well first-up. Will be better once he gets out over a longer trip.

8th

SCREAMARR

Kerrin McEvoy

Ran well just needs further.

9th

BE LIKE DAD

Kathy O'Hara

Just knocked up a little bit. Will appreciate a bit further later.

10th

LUNAR RISE

Andrew Adkins (a)

He's just had enough. He didn't want to be there today.
