Winning jockey Jamie Theriot said, "It's really becoming his style to let him fall out of there. He just places himself and that's where he wants to be. It looks like we have found a niche with him now – he's 2-for-2 going short on the turf."

Dennis Geier, assistant to winning trainer Bret Calhoun added, "(Mr. Nightlinger) has done it all. I don't know what to say. The turf might be his calling. We'd been waiting to get him back on it. We tried him (on turf at Keeneland), not thinking he'd win but he really responded. We ran him back a little quicker than we wanted to do today."
