Winning jockey Alonso Quinonez, also celebrating his first Saratoga win, said, "It was my first time here and my first win, so I am excited. What can I say? I just followed instructions. I was a good passenger. She just did it all. We had it all mapped out. We said, 'Just let her break.' She relaxes pretty good when she is behind horses; when she's not, she wants to go. So, I just kept her behind horses, and she was perfect. When we turned for home, we angled to the outside and took off."
