Trainer Richard Schosberg added, "He ran excellent, fantastic. I think he sent a message today that he's ready again. We don't know how we're going to get (to the Sprint), he runs so well fresh, but we've got plenty of time. Johnny made a few suggestions; this was the first time he's ridden him. We opened up the blinkers on him because he waits a bit. He's real good right now. I'm so pleased for the owners and the horse."
