Winning Trainer: Mat Ellerton
"We think she's a filly that has got a bit of depth to her ability so it was really good to see her do that. She's only very lightly raced and she's taking time to mature up.
"She's only slight but she's a beautiful filly."
Last run: "It was a strong Wednesdday race first-up and she may have peaked on her run. There's just been a lack of three-year-old benchmark races away from carnival races, so it was a strong race and she found that necessary improvement today.
Up the straight: "We were hopeful rather than confident. Damien encouraged us to run here and down in the weights in a fillies only race, I'm glad we went that way.
Next: "We'll see. She's only a very slight filly but I'd like to think she's at least stakes level so fingers crossed she pulls up alright and we can go on with the job.
"We've given her her time so hopefully connections start reaping the rewards."
Winning Jockey: Damian Lane
"She trialed up really well this preparation. She's always a filly that has shown above average ability.
"(Was) Probably a tough disappointing at Sandown. Maybe needed the run or the race shape didn't suit her.
"But I was confident with a light weight and down the straight she could run really well, so I'm glad Matty chose to come this way and it has paid off."
