Winning trainer Kiaran McLaughlin said, "We thought he would be successful
stretching out, but you never know until you try. I thought we would out-break
(Keyed Entry) and beat him to the first turn, and that was important. If he
wanted to go past us, it looked like Edgar (Prado) had the horse to pass us,
but he decided to sit off of us. He's a sound horse and he's never missed a
day of trainer and Jules is not a sprint sire." McLaughlin will start Like
Now in the Wood Memorial next.
