I was surprised he was that long but I pretty much stayed with my play.
I swapped out using Solar Flare and used Commentator with Notional. Aside from doing that, the only other things I did right was figuring Notional would be about 6-1 and I pressed my exbox with Student Council a bit based on the track condition. I was wrong about the pace, set up and my horse's trip.
Still, great to see Commentator win. Winning Grade 1's thee years apart really remarkable.
