Winning Trainer: Symon Wilde
"She's a bit untapped and we threw her in the deep end today. I think she's got really good staying potential.
"I think that horse (Barbie's Fox) levelling with her actually pushed her on a bit. She's still very green and has got plenty of upside.
"That is a really valuable win for her and we've got the mare and a lot of the progeny so it is an important win.
"She is a winner and for the two runs that she didn't win she was desperately unlucky. She's building a really nice record and it will be so interesting where else we go in the springtime.
"She handled today beautifully. I led her around and she was lovely and relaxed.
"For a country horse coming to the city with people screaming with The Everest on, she handled it really well. She's just starting to mature and I don't know where the ceiling is."
Group 1 potential: "I don't know. Maybe the Empire Rose. We loosely pencilled in the 2000-metre mares race (Matriarch). That's the sort of race we thought she could be capable of and she has done nothing to dent our confidence after that."
Winning Jockey: Damian Lane
"She was great. Big bold-going horse. Big stride. She just floated out in front there a little bit but when the other horse came at her she knuckled down.
"She tends to pull but she's got the stamina and was strong to the line."
