From the connections
“I'm a little bit surprised. Assorda seems like a nice mare but it was her first time in a British race and there were a few question marks, but we thought we'd come and see what she's got. It suited me down to the ground in the end. It would've been interesting if Kielan's horse had stayed upright to see which one would've won, and we could've seen what she had as we didn't know how much speed she has - Emma-Smith Chaston, rider, speaking to Racing TV.”
