What the Group I Stradbroke jockeys said

Godolphin’ has added another Group One trophy for 2018-19 with Trekking’s Stradbroke Handicap win.

WHAT THE JOCKEYS SAID AFTER THE STRADBROKE HANDICAP

  • Kerrin McEvoy (Trekking, won): “He was suited by the fast pace and got into the race at the right time.”

  • Tommy Berry (Tyzone, 2nd): “Had a beautiful cart behind the winner but just wan’t quite good enough to pick him up.”

  • Leith Innes (Endless Drama, 3rd): “Super run. He’s come a long way in a couple of months.”

  • Glen Boss (Spright, 4th): “Got spat out the back at the start and it was a huge run to get as close as she did. Probably doesn’t win but should’ve run a clear second or third.”

  • Michael Dee (Tom Melbourne, 5th): “He jumped well but stumbled soon after the start. I didn’t want to dig him up because it would’ve fired him up but it was a good run.”

  • Tim Clark (Viridine, 6th): “I thought he performed well. He went better this week than he did last week with the lighter weight.”

  • Billy Egan (Widgee Turf, 7th): “Good run. An honest effort at this level but he probably needs all favours to win a race like this and the wide alley was against.”

  • Michael Cahill (The Bostonian, 11th): “Lost his footing as the gates opened. Didn’t get much room in the straight but spoiled his chances at the start.”

  • James McDonald (Home Of The Brave, 17th): “Just too keen.”
