He was quite at the end,” said McCarthy after the victory. “He got out of the gate nicely and I wanted Yannick and Jason to have their positions sorted before I kept printing. We had to do a bit to make ends meet, but once he got there, he settled nicely for me. He is just a real professional.
“I kept an eye on Scotty there. I knew that if he would move, he would probably go fairly quickly. I made sure I had a little gas in the tank. When I asked him at the top of the straight, he had a little bit left for me.”
