JOCKEY QUOTES

     JOHN VELAZQUEZ, EDGEWAY, WINNER: “I watched her run, obviously, she runs really good races. Today, the strategy was to chase them or chase me. I broke (well), let her run to the lead and let them catch me…when I asked her to run, she responded right away so I’m very proud. Thanks for the opportunity given to me here for riding these good horses.”

OWNER QUOTES

         KOSTA HRONIS, OWNER, EDGEWAY, WINNER: “That was really good.  She bounced out of the Breeders’ Cup (Filly & Mare Sprint) really well.  I think the plan was to give her a little bit more of a break, but she’s been asking to run, so John (Sadler) had her all trained up and ready to go.  It’s an honor to have John (Velazquez).  Any time we can have jockeys like this on the West Coast, we’re always happy to see that.”

            NOTES: The winning owner is Hronis Racing, LLC.
