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.
