Find out what the jockeys made of their mounts after the Group 1 $1,000,000 Inglis Sires’ at Royal Randwick.

Jason Collett (Manaal): “She’s tough. I travelled well when the tempo come off but just came under pressure there when they went and just had to give her the time to find it.

“She’s just got a real attitude and toughness about her, which showed late.”

“I was fortunate enough to pick her up in the Slipper and although she didn’t win it, it felt like a win.

“I came back in and I could see the excitement in Michael’s eyes and the team.

“She had an awful gate (in the Slipper), so we went into today with confidence. Her work on Tuesday was the same as before going into the Slipper. Again she drew wide, but she was able to overcome it.”

They went early then they pulled up through the middle. I was trying to hold Coleman in but he’s a big horse and I’m not, so he got out, and I just then had to give her time to rebalance.

“I thought I might have only had to Coleman to beat, but Traffic Warden was still there, and luckily she got her nose down.”

Jamie Kah (Traffic Warden): “Super run. So close. He’s just improving every time I ride him.”

Damian Lane (Coleman): “He ran super. I was just beaten for speed early and had to make too much ground in the run in. He sprinted well but run ended at the 100m.”

James McDonald (Storm Boy): “He did a good job. He was trapped deep and he just refused to settle there for a bit.”

Adam Hyeronimus (Prost): “Just flat out the whole way on the track. He will come back next prep. He’s a nice 3yo.”

Tim Clark (Anode): “He tried hard but he just found a few stronger.”

Tommy Berry (Fearless): “Just uncomfortable in amongst horses today. Went a bit keen but was still honest. It look away his finish.”

Rachel King (Vianarra): “Jumped and travelled really well today. A bit sharp for him. He’s going to make a nice 3yo.”

Zac Purton (Duvana): “Just travelled a bit strong through the mid-stages and when they quickened he was flat-footed.”
