I quote:

'Group 1 winner Hay List, a gifted sprinter who has won 12 of 16 lifetime
races, could not keep pace with Black Caviar. His rider, Glyn
Schofield, thought he was in ideal striking position just off Black
Caviar’s outside flank with about 600 meters remaining, but the winner
accelerated clear effortlessly and was geared down in the final
strides.
'“She just went away from us,” Schofield told The Age. “She was just
way, way too good, and she seemed to be going at about three-quarter
pace. I just don’t know how any horse could beat her.”'
