TYLER BAZE (Just Grazed Me, winner) – “She reminds me of (multiple stakes winner and Fleet Treat Stakes record holder) Enola Gray. When I saw her last week, I thought it was her. She (Just Grazed Me) doesn’t get away from there as fast (as Enola Gray) and get into the race as quickly as her, but boy, she can come running. I knew she was good; I just didn’t know she was that good. When I asked her, she cut.”

RAFAEL BEJARANO (Show It N Moe It, second) – “I had a beautiful trip. She ran good. But the winner went by me like she was a quarter-horse.”

COREY NAKATANI (One Fast Broad, third) – “We tried ‘em. The winner was just too tough.”

PHIL D’AMATO  (Just Grazed Me, winner) – “The thing I like about this filly is she’s versatile. As a 2-year-old she had some shin problems. So we took our time with her and took care of that. Since then she’s really come on strong. She’s very well composed, very rateable, has a nice little kick, and I think she’s just going to get better.”
