While many would be happy to get the black type win and look ahead to the Spring, Kefford suggested there's a strong chance Highvol would be seen in Queensland, with the Group 1 J J Atkins Stakes (1600m) the ultimate goal.
"There is some options up in Queensland even, for the end of their winter carnival. So obviously we'll see how he comes through this run and then maybe plot a path to some two-year-old races up there."
Melham said she'd been expecting a tricky ride from the pre-race information she'd received but was pleasantly surprised.
"Rhys McLeod called me this morning, gave me some insight about him and said he's just not quite there yet, he's very immature and that's probably why he's had so many jump outs, but he didn't seem immature out there today, he was very professional and won really well," Melham said.
"He was push button out there, he jumped, put himself on the speed, he obviously peaked late first up over 1400 so he'll improve off that, he was an absolute gentleman to ride. I'll ride him any day Rhys can't make the weight."
The Anzac Day Stakes has been won by future Group 1 winners Merchant Navy and Long John in recent years.
