Jockey David Flores added, "When he passed those horses, he wanted to lug in and stay with the horses but I just kind of let him gallop out. It doesn't look like the distance is going to be a problem."

Winning trainer Todd Pletcher said, "We were impressed by this horse obviously not only today but by the way he ran in California, and David's been really high on him. Of course, we were concerned about coming back in 16 days but we knew he liked the synthetic surface so we figured we'd give it a shot."
