Find out what the jockeys made of their mounts after the Group 2 $250,000 Fujitsu General Silver Slipper (1100m) at Rosehill Gardens.

Sam Clipperton (Best Of Bordeaux): “It was a race with many variables before. Luckily Kacy (Fogden) and her team a very easy to ride for and said leave it to you as you know him now - you sort it out. When Tim Clark and Rachel were going quick, I began quick and going into that chute I had a decision to make because I really couldn’t just sit there.

“I thought I will keep him rolling, keep him happy and he came back under me. One of the amazing things about this horse is that he’s so little but he can quicken so sharply off such speed. I would have loved to have stayed on the rail coming into the straight but the way the track is playing I came out a bit.

“He was no, no we’re going back to the inside. I just let him drift back down there. He was getting a bit tired late which he was entitled to but that just proves his Canonbury win was no fluke and he felt even better today. Impressive horse and well done to Kacy and the team. He’s a live Slipper chance now.”
