Winning trainer Marty Wolfson said, "My whole concern was her moving too soon. She really did it easy today when she opened up like that. She needs horses to run at. I don't know what's next. She's nominated for the Kentucky Oaks, but I don't want to go there. There's too much commotion. I'm grateful to the owners. They let me buy her privately as a yearling for $22,000."

Jockey Eddie Castro added, "She stayed behind the speed. She was very relaxed on the backside. I had a lot of horse at the 3/8 pole. She ran off at the 1/4 pole. I've ridden her on turf and dirt and I like her better on dirt."
