Jockey Quotes: Coolmore Legacy Stakes

Find out what the beaten jockeys made of their runs in the Coolmore Legacy Stakes.
 
Kerrin McEvoy (Foxplay): “I was wide, full credit to the horse she did a good job. I just had her travelling and she picked up well.”
 
Craig Williams (Silent Sedition): “How honest is she? But unfortunately she is just not as effective on that ground.”
 
Blake Shinn (First Seal): “I thought she ran outstanding considering she didn’t handle the ground. I didn’t want to lead but they left me alone in front. She travelled as well as she could on the bridle but just floundered in the going.”
 
Tye Angland (Heavens Above): “She had a good run but she just didn’t enjoy the crusty surface.”
 
Brad Rawiller (Real Love): “The last furlong was good but she just didn’t have the turn of foot to be in the race on the turn.”
 
Damian Lane (Zanbagh): “She ran super. If I get a bit better drag into the race she wins.”
 
Sam Clipperton (Dixie Blossoms): “Gallant effort. They probably didn’t go as fast as I thought they would but the leaders stayed off the fence and I had a nice bit of cover the whole way. When me and Foxplay really surged at the leaders at the 50m I thought we were going to stick our head out and win it. Take nothing away from her it was a gallant effort to be beaten less than a length.”
 
Hugh Bowman (Danish Twist): “A good draw ended up being a bad draw but make no excuses I think a mile is a bit too far for her.”
 
Tommy Berry (Rising Romance): “She’s been a grand old mare but she has left her zest for racing.”
 
Corey Brown (Euro Angel): “She’s just a difficult horse to herself, she won’t relax and settle, but the day that she learns how to do it she definitely has the ability. Just needs to get her head right.”
 
Christian Reith (Elle Lou): “She tried hard it just wasn’t her day today.”
 
Mark Zahra (Jessy Belle): “She ran as good as she could. Cut the bend and finished midfield.”
 
Luke Nolen (Abbey Marie): “She ran well. Probably the modest tempo didn’t really suit her.”
 
Tim Clark (Extensible): “Had a lovely run just not suited at level weights and I think she is better on top of the ground.”
 
Jason Collett (Pure Pride): “Travelled well but just laboured when asked.”
 
Ms J Taylor (Diamond Made): “She ran super. Big improvement on last start. She got shortened up at the top of the straight but when she got out she let down really well.”
 
Damien Oliver (Oregon's Day): “I thought she ran really well.”
