2008 Wood Memorial and Carter Handicap

Winning jockey Edgar Prado, who swept both Grade 1 events on Wood day, said, "It's been a super day! It's a good way to let everyone know that I am back in New York. My horse ran great, and broke running out of the gate. He never gave up and tried hard all the way. I was just very proud of him. Speed has been holding pretty well, and that was to our advantage. He just did everything so easily."
