Winning jockey Javier Castellano said, "There was so much noise, she thought it was ready to go and she hit the gate. The vet checked her out and she was okay. Unfortunately, the other filly (Country Star) flipped all the way to the back and was scratched. I had a great post on the outside. She did it the right way today. She was comfortable and relaxed. At the 3/8 pole, she grabbed the bit and she wanted to go. I took care of her today for her next race."
