Court's Star  Trainer J. Wilcock was questioned regarding the improved performance. He stated that the horse was slow to begin at its most recent start, adding that if the race had been longer the horse would have fought out the finish. He indicated that the gelding has been a late maturer and was suited to today's step up in distance to 1600m.

Attard stated that the intention was to ride the horse in a mid to forward position, however after beginning only fairly, was obliged to race further back in the field than anticipated and when the pace slackened in the middle stages the horse commenced to overrace for the majority of the event, which was a telling factor on the horse's finishing performance. A post-race veterinary examination revealed no significant findings and a swab sample was taken.  Kilcoy  17/05/2015
