Winning jockey Garrett Gomez said, "He's a very useful horse. He was there for me every step of the way. Today, he was like driving a car. I didn't expect to be in front of Nobiz Like Shobiz. When they took back, it left me in the driver's seat. I stayed out for a long time, wanting to make sure no one got to my outside. As the race progressed, I was liking my spot. The way my colt was traveling; it was unbelievable. We picked the tempo up at the 1/2-mile pole. When we turned for home I said, `Let me lay him down.'"
