JOCKEY QUOTES

            UMBERTO RISPOLI, GOING TO VEGAS, WINNER: “When it is a Grade I you want to give it your all no matter how many people there are waiting for you when you come back, but this is great. I could hear people screaming and applauding. I was busy because I could feel Flavien was coming. I knew he was coming fast, but we handled pretty well, I’m pretty happy that they decided to get me back on the filly. I credit the owners and Richard as well. She’s a Grade one winner now, the next step is a Breeders’ Cup.”

TRAINER QUOTES

          RICHARD BALTAS, GOING TO VEGAS, WINNER: “I’m thrilled with both horse’s performances. Going to Vegas has the tactical speed and loves going a mile and a quarter and she showed it. It was a great ride by (Umberto). My other horse, Luck, really moved up in class. I was really happy with her performance, she really improved in a Grade I, I’m looking forward to the future with her. We will see how the two horses come out of the race tomorrow, but I feel that both horses are heading to the Breeders’ Cup.”
