Winning jockey John Velazquez said, "It actually worked out
great. The post position didn't really hurt him. I knew he was fast
enough to overcome it. It was just perfect after they hit the first
turn. He was comfortable. As soon as I got after him at the
1/4 pole, he switched leads. I was surprised that no one was
closing, but I wasn't going to wait. My horse just exploded, he ran
great."
