2024 Up And Coming Stakes Review: What The Jockeys Said

Autumn Glow could be something special as she dominated the Up And Coming Stakes at her second start on Saturday.

Kerrin McEvoy (Autumn Glow  – Winner)

“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 – Second)

“He is a lovely colt. He has a bright future being lightly raced. We got beaten by a very smart filly.”


Tom Sherry (Snack Bar – 3rd)

“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.”



Reece Jones (Iron Hawk – 4th)

“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.”


Rachel King (Media World – 5th)

“Lovely colt first up. He is going to take plenty of improvement from that. Finished off well.”


Jason Collett (Enriched – 6th)

“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 – 7th)

“Face value he was disappointing. See how he pulls up and goes from there.”


Jay Ford (Tatoka – 8th)

They were too sharp for her. She will be better over further.


Zac Lloyd (Axius – 8th)

He’s a lovely colt. I really have a lot of time for this horse. Just today wasn’t his day.
