JUST days after completing his quarantine at Werribee’s international facility, the David Hayes and Tom Dabernig-trained Criterion added to his stallion credentials with an impressive victory in the Caulfield Stakes over 2,000 metres.
“I think he’s been racing in the Olympics and he’s back in the National Championships now. People just don’t understand how good they are over there,” remarked Hayes on Criterion’s unplaced runs in the Prince Of Wales’s Stakes and Juddmonte International. Saturday’s win was the Sebring five-year-old’s fourth Group 1, with the stable eyeing a fifth in the Cox Plate on October 24th.
