Winning trainer Carl Nafzger said, "the horse has taken us everywhere. Mr. Tafel and I, since the last summer in the Maiden race in Chicago, I said, Calvin, make him beat us. And after that we talked and we said, "Now the horse takes us where it's going," and man, has he taken us on a trip. I can really afford to retire now. This horse has never ran a bad race. He's done everything he's supposed to. Like I said earlier, and I mean seriously, this horse took us here today. I've got all the faith in the world in this horse and I can't say enough about him. When everybody said two races, to me, there wasn't anything to it. There was two races, because the horse had already had five, had already learned his lessons and it was a matter of getting fit and getting his timing."
