The Oakleigh Plate is generally won by a good but not elite sprinter, although greats such as Schillaci (1992) have won this race.
Back to his best, he defeated Mahogany and Schillaci in the Stanley Wootton Stakes and again in the George Ryder Stakes (from which he was later disqualified).
Daniel's nickname is "Schillaci", after the famous Italian striker Salvatore Schillaci.
