Winning trainer Saeed bin Suroor said, "She's grown up a lot since she ran earlier in the year in Dubai. She looked stronger than ever and she has learned a lot from her last race at Saratoga. She was really happy. The target now is the Breeders' Cup (Ladies Classic). I had a good feeling coming into the race (we could beat Ginger Punch). The last race really set her up and she's really grown."
