Seth Benzel, assistant trainer of second place finisher Keyed Entry said,
"This sets him up nicely for the Wood, if that's what Todd (Pletcher, trainer)
wants to do. We came in today with a question of whether or not he could rate
or how he could take two turns, and he answered a lot of those questions.
Leading up to a race like the Kentucky Derby, a win isn't always the most
important thing." Jockey Edgar Prado added, "He rated beautifully and he took
good position and then when I called on him, he responded, but the horse in
front of me had something left. The most important thing is that he raced very
kind and finished strong. He has a lot of potential and he should improve."
