Winning Trainer: Peter & Paul Snowden - Peter speaking
"She's very genuine and never runs a bad race. It set up nicely from a good barrier draw today.
"She's a very tough filly and when you spell her it takes a bit to get her back again so she was freshened up after the Gold Coast and was in good order.
"That rails hugging ride and getting cover, getting held up probably helped her and getting out late she found the line nicely.
"She's a credit to all her owners. They've been patient and I'm so happy that they're rewarded now."
What's next: "There's a lot of options here and in Sydney and I'm pretty sure she'll go to the May or June sale this year and she'll be a very valuable commodity.
"Maybe $1-1.5 million now. She's run second in the Group 1 Blue Diamond and second in the mares race over the mile as a three-year-old.
"The Coolmore is an option and the 1500-metres is a sweet spot for her. We'll see what happens."
Winning Jockey: Michael Dee
"It worked out exactly as we planned. We wanted to be in the box seat with cover, have her nice and relaxed but travelling strongly.
"She was able to quicken up on the inside there and keep building through the line. She was prepped up perfectly by Peter and Paul and she seemed nice and fresh for this after coming back from the Gold Coast which was probably a tough ask in itself.
"I was thankful that the run appeared on the inside and my mare took it quite comfortably."
