Post race article, the trainer of Zedi Knight, Brendan McCarthy, had an idea Zedi Knight would do well after he dumped Tommy Nikolic last Friday at trackwork.

"When he dropped Tommy on Friday, I knew he was pretty well. I know when he does that sort of stuff he's feeling pretty good," McCarthy said.

Yet another "filter" for our system experts! LOL

Chrissy Stakes anyone?
