Winning Trainer: Richard & Chantelle Jolly
<NO STABLE REPRESENTATIVE AVAILABLE FOR INTERVIEW>
Winning Jockey: Zac Spain
"He was going to run in the Ballarat Cup but it was going to be too wet for him and they decided to hold off. They found the right race today.
"He's just a winner. He knows where that winning post is even though he had a shy at it. He's a lovely big strong horse and put himself in a lovely spot. Relaxed nice underneath me and he was never going to get beaten today.
"I knew that there was one horse (Bonvicini) coming and to his credit he dug deep. He's a winner. You look at his form and it is three-in-a-row now.
"Credit to Richard and Chantelle, they do a great job in Adelaide and whenever they bring their horses to Melbourne they're competitive. I'm glad I could be on his back today."
