Jockey John Murtagh said, "My horse ran a very good race. Two furlongs out I thought I had it. It was just the last 20 yards or so he went dead on me. The winner just got me at the wire."

Black Bear Island was sold before the race and will be sent to California to new trainer Julio Canani to prepare for a possible Breeders' Cup start.
