Trent Busuttin has always been in a partnership with Natalie Young at the track and away from it, so Tavago winning the Australian Derby was his greatest moment at the track.
Young became the first woman to train an Australian Derby winner as Tavago raced away to win by 3-1/4 lengths from Jameka and Tally with $1.65 favourite Tarzino in fourth after pulling for most of the race - a run that  left punters shaking their head.    
Busuttin was also shaking his head albeit for different reasons. This win topped his Victoria Derby with Sangster in 2011. 
"She is twice the horsewoman that I am a trainer," Busuttin said. "We have been together forever and have a couple of beautiful kids.
"It is very much a partnership and we share everything, to have her name next to mine in the book makes this even more special."
Tavago had been missing the kick and leaving himself too much to do but he was in stalking position coming to the turn and exploded away from his rivals when Tommy Berry asked him to go.
"That is amazing to see him come out and do that," Young said.  "He was better today than before the New Zealand Derby .
"He was nice and relaxed out there and Tommy [Berry] gave him a great ride and got him to jump and that was the key. He jumped, box-seated, relaxed nicely and just kicked, it was a phenomenal ride from Tommy." 
Berry had put his faith in Busuttin when he got a text from him to ride Tavago. 
"He is a very good judge of a horse and he texted me to ask me ride him," Berry said. "He texted me again and said they a good look at the New Zealand Derby sectionals and you will be happy. He probably should have won it.
"I had a soft run and could see Tarzino had been pulling all the way. I got up behind them on the turn and he just went away from them. The only time he touched the bit was pulling up and he pulled me all the way back to the enclosure."
Tarzino had run his race by the turn after jumping the crossing at the mile.and  didn't give himself a chance to ran out a strong 2400m. 
"He was relentless [pulling] until to the 600m until I came off [Jameka's] back," jockey Craig Newitt said.
"I was just trying to get my bloke to come underneath me. He swapped onto his Melbourne leg [at the 600m] and he stayed on his Melbourne leg for the rest of the way. He never felt comfortable at any stage."
Tavago left no excuses for the others that had settled on the slow speed but couldn't match him in the straight.
Jameka will have another chance in the Australian Oaks next week. 
"Found one better on the day but she's run well again. Just have to keep her breathing for the Oaks next week," Damien Oliver said.
Berry's win came at a cost as he was suspended for three meetings and fined $2000 for a whip breach - striking Tavago one time more than permitted before the 100 metres - and a further $400 for a celebratory gesture before the finishing post.
He will miss the final day of the Randwick carnival and the All Aged Stakes, but will be free to ride at Japan's Thousand Guineas meeting.
"It's not a good record," chief steward Ray Murrihy told Berry. "I'm not suggesting they in any way changed the chain of events with Tavago winning. They're not full blooded forehand blows, but you've got to play within the rules."
