1st: Golden Sixty - Vincent Ho
“I'm grateful for Golden Sixty, of course. It's always my honour to be on him. I'm happy for the horse and happy for the crowds that come to support him. He’s just an amazing horse.
“He's going as well as ever. There’s no sign of him dropping in performance.”
2nd: Beauty Joy - Hugh Bowman
“Delighted, no surprise to see him do that. He enjoyed that even tempo. It wasn’t frantic, it was consistent, which is what he needs.”
3rd: California Spangle - Zac Purton
“He ran well, he just got annoyed the whole race. They were at him and he sort of didn’t get a chance to switch off.”
4th: Voyage Bubble - Alexis Badel
“He runs a very good race.”
5th: Aegon - James McDonald
“Might need 2000 metres after the way he got going late. Really though he’s run very well against this class of horse.”
“He was alright but unfortunately he didn't bring his best game. Disappointing.”
7th: Waikuku - Tom Marquand
“He's been a very good horse but not today. Think it might be his last run.”
8th: Healthy Happy - Silvestre de Sousa
“He's not quite good enough against these horses.”
