Winning owner and breeder Dr. William F. Coyro Jr. said, "We were very confident in him. It's very nice to bring a horse by With Approval back to Canada and win a big race. I can't be happier. The way Woodbine has treated us has been fantastic. He really goes to the front, but he's got a tremendous amount of stamina. So we were pretty confident once he got the lead that he was going to keep it. I think we're going to look at a couple of graded stakes races (in the future), 1 3/8 miles, 1 1/2 miles, and point to the Breeders' Cup (Turf), hopefully."
