Trainer Brian Lynch said, "She got into a little traffic down the backstretch and then hung quite wide into the stretch. Hey, she laid it down, I was thrilled at where she finished and that she gave the fans what they wanted. She was legitimately the favorite and the two of them drew off and made a hell of a race of it. We're probably going to give her a break for a little bit now and look at the Breeders' (Stakes) for a mile and a half (on turf)."

Jockey Javier Castellano added, "She ran a very good race. She's second-best today, that's all. She was perfect. She had a good trip following the winner. She showed up today. I'm happy for that."
