Winning driver John Campbell said, "I really didn't know what to expect out of this horse in this race. I got to the front early and the horse really just swelled up and wanted to keep on going. He never seemed to get tired and I never pulled the plugs. Hopefully this colt, if he stays healthy throughout the season, will be in good shape to be a sharp contender in this year's Hambletonian."
