Find out what the jockeys made of their mounts after the Group 3 $250,000 CMNL Up & Coming Stakes (1300m) at Rosehill Gardens.
Kerrin McEvoy (Autumn Glow): “I think she is pretty good. She has gone a long way in her couple of starts and she just gives you that good horse feel.
“She had the right scenario today with a light weight on her back but at her second start to give me that sort of feel I’d say she’s got a very high ceiling.
“I think there is still a bit of growing. Her wither will come up a bit once she fully furnishes.
“Just going to the gates she switched on from the first run to the second run. She sort of towed me around and I thought ‘she is on the money’. Even after I got into that nice spot and I was asking her to come back and settle she wanted to overdo it a tiny bit. She is still learning her craft which is exciting again. It was a brilliant win by her.”

Tommy Berry (Wanaruah): “He is a lovely colt. He has a bright future being lightly raced. We got beaten by a very smart filly.”
Tyler Schiller (Snack Bar): “Yeah massive run. I thought he did a great job. He got a little bit further back than I wanted to. I thought he quickened up really well in the straight. I think he will benefit a lot from the run.”
Jason Collett (Enriched): “Travelled well. Got held up at a vital stage. Wasn’t strong that last sort of 50m when he might have been entitled to be.”
Tim Clark (Shangri La Express): “Face value he was disappointing. See how he pulls up and go from there."
Rachel King (Media World): “Lovely colt first up. He is going to take plenty of improvement from that. Finished off well.”
Zac Lloyd (Axius): “He’s a lovely colt. I really have a lot of time for this horse. Just today wasn’t his day.”
Reece Jones (Iron Hawk): “He finished off superbly. Blinkers on today seemed to do the trick to really switch him on. He will get better over a little bit more ground and with more racing experience. He’s not fully furnished yet.”
Jay Ford (Totoka): “They were too sharp for her. She will be better over further.”
