RON QUINTON knows plenty about winning three-year-old fillies' classics, taking away a handful as a jockey before winning the 2002 VRC Oaks with Bulla Borghese as a trainer, reports the Sydney Morning Herald.

Its report adds: He will try to add another one to his resume as Crafty Irna takes on what he believes is the strongest AJC Australian Oaks for a long while at Randwick on Saturday.

The 100th edition of the classic includes the Australian Guineas and AJC Australian Derby winner Shamrocker, VRC Oaks heroine Brazilian Pulse and Mirjulisa Lass, which was dominant in winning the Vinery Stud Stakes at Rosehill a fortnight ago.

"We have run into the strongest Oaks I can remember for a long time," said Quinton, whose first AJC Oaks winner Analie also took out the Doncaster when the races were held on separate days in 1973. "You always get a couple of nice fillies but I can't remember the Australian Guineas and Derby winner and the Melbourne Oaks winner being in this race before. You always have to respect the Vinery winner and Greg Hickman's filly [Mirjulisa Lass] was very good winning at Rosehill and looks like it will get the trip as well."
