VOYAGE BUBBLE –  Zac Purton

“I think he just showed what type of horse he is. He’s not a horse that’s going to give you a wow performance but he’s got such a big heart that he’s always up for a fight. In his own right he’s an extremely good horse, a Triple Crown winner, he’s come back today off the canvas to win. What an effort.”

SOUL RUSH – Cristian Demuro

“He ran very good, we had a good trip, I came maybe a little bit too early but the other horse was so strong.”

RED LION – Hugh Bowman

“Fantastic again, very courageous horse.”

DOCKLANDS – Tom Marquand

“Ran huge, he broke well, so were a bit close to the speed, he chased those front two nicely.”

GALAXY PATCH – James McDonald

“He did OK, the pace didn’t really suit us.”

MY WISH – Luke Ferraris

“He had a nice run in transit, blended into the race nicely, I thought he might have quickened a bit better.”

PATCH OF THETA – Craig Williams

“He needed to have a lot of luck from his draw today and he stepped slow but he ran very well to finish seventh in this international race.”

BEAUTY JOY – Brenton Avdulla

“He was OK, the pace was just too slow for him. He’s better off with a genuine gallop.”

PRAY FOR MIR – Alexis Badel

A fair race for the horse. He led, he was comfortable and tried really hard. I thought he ran well, he had his chance.

BEAUVATIER – Alexis Pouchin

“The race was not easy for him, they went a bit slow but he finished well.”

EMBROIDERY – Christope Lemaire

“She followed Soul Rush on the back stretch but she was out of gas coming to the last turn. She was disappointing.”

THE LION IN WINTER – Ryan Moore

Unavailable to comment.

SUNLIGHT POWER – Christophe Soumillon

“He needs to be ridden in the back.”

COPARTNER PRANCE – Maxime Guyon

“He ran a good race, it was difficult for him.”
