JOCKEY QUOTES

            KENT DESORMEAUX, JIMMY BLUE JEANS, WINNER: “I only spoke to the assistant (trainer)  and he told me to just try to get him home and he’ll probably be forwardly placed and just try to enjoy the ride.  That’s all he said. This ride started two or three days ago, I was a tour guide for the owners I had to show them where to get licensed and everything so this is a nice omen I think it’s what it is.”

OWNER QUOTES

            PERRY BRUNO, JIMMY BLUE JEANS, CO-OWNER/BREEDER, WINNER: “This is the biggest race I’ve won yet. It’s like surreal, it’s so good, it’s like a dream.

“It’s a great feeling. I’m just a small guy who owns a couple of mares with my partner John Gezon.

“We live out in Salt Lake City. I’m from Salt Lake, John’s from Salt Lake, and our other owner is from Park City.”

            NOTES: The winning owners are Perry Bruno, John Gezon, and Robert Jones.
