Race Talk: Floria deserves a Cuddle

Jockey Leith Innes gave all the credit to Floria after her gutsy win in the Gr3 $70000 Cuddle Stakes at Trentham today.

He was three wide throughout but the mare, forced to run in the shadows of Veyron and Scarlett Lady throughout her career, had her day in the sun, cutting down Dating, who had the perfect run, and feisty placemaker Abeautifulred.

"Three wide is never a great place to be," said Innes. "Things didn't pan out, so full credit to the mare."

Favourite Viadana had no luck late and was forced to settle for fourth ahead of an equally luckless O'Fille, whose rider Noel Harris couldn't get a gap on the rails over the final 200.
