In so doing, Boss reckons a shift inwards on the track can catch a jockey off-guard. Boss reckoned it cost no-one any money. Murrihy disagreed and posed the line about El Mirada finishing second. Boss wasn't so sure. Stewards were having none of it.

He intends making his case. The case for Quinn taking the honours stems from the fact he beat the best. The cream of the jockeys' crop arrived in Sydney for the autumn carnival and Quinn beat them with nous. And Quinn did it without any fuss. He paid tribute to the horses, saying it shows what can be done when riding thoroughbreds with class.
