Winning trainer Francois Rohaut said, "She showed us last year that she was a top class filly, She only ran once, a very good race (second in the Prix de la Cascade at Longchamp). We were very pleased and gave her a good winter to get everything ready for the big races in the spring and summer."

Winning jockey John Murtagh added, "At the top of the straight, I pulled her out to go. The acceleration wasn’t immediate. (Sealy Hill) kind of quickened up and maybe got a length on me. But she’s very brave, she’s very tough. When I asked her for everything, she gave it to me. She’s improved a lot, she’s improved all season. She ran in the French Oaks, ran well (finished 2nd), the trainer said maybe we might win the Prix Vermeille. That was one of his plans. Now we come to Canada and won the biggest race over here."
