George Ryder Stakes Review: What The Jockeys Said

The John Thompson trained Dreamforce was at his best yesterday and was rewarded with the George Ryder Stakes at Rosehill Yesterday.

Nash Rawiller (Dreamforce – 1st)

I put the pedal to the metal well before straightening. I was sitting well out on the track but then cut the corner then continued out without knowing what happened behind me. I was hoping to throw them into disarray. He showed a lovely turn of foot but I really thought at the 100m that I was going to get beat. To his credit, he lifted again and fought the other bloke off which was pretty thrilling.

James McDonald (The Bostonian – 2nd)

Super run. He is going well.

Opie Bosson (Te Akau Shark – 3rd)

The 1500m was probably just a little bit too sharp for him today.

Glen Boss (Brandenburg – 4th)

Outstanding.

Hugh Bowman (Alizee – 5th)

That was a much-improved effort off last start.

Kerrin McEvoy (Best Of Days – 6th)

Good run. They went too slow.

Mark Zahra (Super Seth – 7th)

They went too slow.

Tommy Berry (Happy Clapper – 8th)

He went well. He just didn’t step well enough.

Tim Clark (Spend – 9th)

He wasn’t quite up to it today.
