Jamie Kah had come close here before: September Run was third in 2022. With this win, the jockey drew level with Flavien Prat on 3 Group 1 wins this season. Next in the table: James McDonald (2) and Craig A Williams (2).
Cylinder is out of Circular (Street Cry), a Group winner in Australia who took the Gr.3 Schweppervescence Trophy at Caulfield. He is a half-brother to Parisal (Astern), winner of the Gr.3 Toy Show Handicap.
Second dam Hexameter (Octagonal).
Third dam Sibylline (Chief's Crown) is a half-sister to two Group 1 winners by Octagonal: the sire Lonhro, who won 11 races at that level, and the dual Group 1 winner Niello.
Circular has a colt by Brazen Beau born in 2023 and was covered by Extreme Choice last season.
