She will go for something similar now again. She is a four-year-old and is from a fantastic family. It's great to have the win under her belt now for broodmare purposes. Hopefully she'll improve, she is exposed enough. Her owners (the Brownes) are the salt of the earth, they are fantastic people and I can’t say enough good about them.

P.T. Enright, rider of Field Exhibition trained by Liam Casey, reported to the Clerk of Scales that his mount never travelled. The Stewards requested a report from Paul Nolan, trainer ,as to the apparent improvement in form of Miss Sassie, placed first, as compared with its recent form. The trainer reported that his charge had suffered wind problems in the past and ran very prominent on his last run before fading quickly. He further added that a change in tactics to settle his charge out the back and ride a more patient race had benefitted his charge and he felt that this had brought about the apparent improvement in form. Having considered the evidence the Stewards noted the content of the report.
