Find out what the jockeys made of their mounts after the Group 2 $200,000 Darley Furious Stakes (1200m) at Royal Randwick.
Brock Ryan (Jamaea): “I was a little bit worried the horses I was on the back of weren’t right in the market. I didn’t think they would take me very far. Sort of got in panic mode to push my way out. Lucky enough I had the filly with the best turn of foot in the race."
What a moment for apprentice Brock Ryan!

Nash Rawiller (Four Moves Ahead): “Had to go right back from the awkward draw. Hit the line terrific. Is the one to beat in the Flight Stakes.”
Tim Clark (Swift Witness): “Good run. Just feel she is looking for the 1400m but very happy with her.”
James McDonald (She's All Class): “Good return. She peaked on her run a little bit. Will be there to run well next start.”
Jason Collett (Mallory): “Ran well.”
Sam Clipperton (Robodira): “Superb run. Just as easily could have won. She was beaten by the bob of a head so she has returned in good order.”
Hugh Bowman (Najmaty): “I thought she went well. She didn’t sprint as well as she did first up. But she is on track for the 1400m in a fortnight.”
Glen Boss (Joyous Legend): “Not seasoned enough.”
Jay Ford (Enterprise Pomme): “She ran super. Just needs to harness some of that energy early but she was really strong for me.”
Andrew Adkins (De An Andretti): “Disappointing. She had a lovely run. Never travelled to the extent I would have liked. It is only her second start in a race.”
Kerrin McEvoy (Ruby Kisses): “Got into a nice spot, we travelled well. Pace was strong enough. She just gave only a little kick up the running so back in grade for her I think.”
Rachel King (Wolves): “Just a bit too classy for her today.”
Josh Parr (Yearning): “Nice effort. Got a bit of time for her.”
