"This horse was a star and should have won a Group One race. I thought he was better than champion 2yo Meurice who I also trained. I was always playing catch up with Sharkbite as he was shinsore when sent to me from another trainer as an autumn 2yo. He was undefeated as a 2yo and unlucky not to win a big race as a spring 3yo before getting injured. He still came back to win stakes race as a 4yo. Sharkbite is a great looking horse with an exceptionally good temperament. I am sure he will make a top stallion."
- Rodney Douglas (trainer)
"What a beautiful horse.....he just went whoosh!"
- Jockey Craig Williams after winning the Jayco Stakes up the Flemington straight six on Melbourne Cup day.
"Sharkbite was the best looking yearling our stud has ever bred and that was shown by his $900,000 purchase price. That price also reflected the fact that he is by Redoute's Choice from an amazing female line."
- Jon Haseler (Glenlogan Stud)
