JUAN HERNANDEZ (Flattery, winner) – “She broke good, then we took back. I was watching Umberto (Rispoli on favored Loterie) to see what he was doing. On the turn, he got the jump on me, so I went. I took outside and my filly really ran. She was more professional today than in her first race. She was strong.”

PETER EURTON (Flattery, winner) – “I didn’t know if she was going to get out of it because they were kind of trapped a little inside. But once he got her settled it was just a matter of time. He had so much horse. She’s kind of jumped up a level since her last. She’s more precocious and her last works were more on the bridle. She picked things up pretty quick.”
