Jockey John Velazquez said, "His best races are there, out on the front. We're not going to change his style. He put in a real good fight. I think his blinkers are too tight, because he can't see the horses outside of him. But he put in a great effort."

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."
