It was a good tough performance. He's been improving with each run all year and I'd say that's as good as he's been all year. I think a mile-and-a-half is probably his perfect trip. I'm very pleased with the win. He ran well the last day but I think a mile-and-a-half is probably his optimum distance. Dylan gave him a lovely uncomplicated ride. This lad always fights and he fought on hard today. There is the Kilternan Stakes back here on Champions Weekend and he's also in the Caulfield Cup. I'm not sure if he can do both. I think the quarantine may start before the Kilternan, so it might be one or the other.
