Winning driver and trainer Roger Hammer said, "This horse is lucky to be back racing as tough as he is, especially after the infection he had. He's good, but I wasn't sure if he was sharp enough to go this distance. We're pointing him next for the Titan Cup, and then we'll bring him back up here for four months, as long as he stays healthy."
