Trainer Nick Zito, who also trains the winner, said, "My percentage isn't great; I think it's 2 for 18 now. But we've been second six times in this race, and third a whole bunch of times, too, and fourth. So we have a good history with the race. Obviously we like these classic races. It's New York, it's our home, it's a mile and a half, it's one of the great races of all time."
