What the jockeys said after the 2021 Ranvet Stakes – Racenet
The Chris Waller-trained Verry Elleegant proved she’s genuinely world class when taking out the Group 1 Ranvet Stakes (2000m) at Rosehill on Saturday.
I haven’t had that much fun on a racecourse for a very long time. It was so much fun. She began like an Oakleigh Plater, I was so pleased with her. She travelled a little bit stronger than I wanted to but the pace was just nice. Then when I got off at the 600m I said ‘he’s going to have to be good today’. Halfway up (the straight) I could feel her at her top and he was still there and I was thinking, ‘on no, not again’. But she’s just a wonderful mare, great determination, fantastic will to win…
