She was very good and she got some super assistance from the saddle. She wasn't going to give it away anyway,. After that we'll probably keep her to a mile-and-a-quarter or less. Probably the best mile-and-a-quarter race to come is at Longchamp on Arc day (Prix de l'Opéra) but the only problem with that is she doesn't like soft ground so we have to be careful. She might get an invite to Hong Kong after that and I'll have to take out my passport again. Herself and Cimeara are closely related. She is out of a full-sister to Cimeara's dam and both those mares are by Galileo which doesn't stop them either. J S Bolger, trainer
L.Dettori, rider of Hazapour, trained by D. K. Weld, reported to the Stewards' Secretaries that his mount arrived with his challenge but had no more to give and may not have appreciated the ground
The Stewards requested a report from J. S. Bolger, trainer, as to the apparent improvement in form of Turret Rocks, placed first, as compared with its most recent form. Mr. Ger Flynn, authorised representative for the trainer, reported that Turret Rocks settled well today in a race that was run at a fast pace and felt this had helped to bring about the apparent improvement in form. Having considered the report, the Stewards noted the explanation offered.
