JOCKEY QUOTES
JUAN HERNANDEZ, EDA, WINNER: “She was travelling really good. She was comfortable the whole race, she broke really sharp today and I got a good position. I was outside and when she broke like that, I just came to the rail and just let her run. I asked her around the quarter pole when I felt the inside horse and the outside horse (closing in), I told her it was time to go and she picked it up pretty good.
“When I asked her, she responded and took off again but I saw the other horse (stablemate Under the Stars) and he almost got me.”
TRAINER QUOTES
BOB BAFFERT, EDA, WINNER: “Both of my fillies were training really well and I was debating whether to run her, there was another spot. It was either run here or go to Sunland Park. I thought, well, we’ll keep her here. She worked well coming into this and I’m happy both of my horses ran well…I don’t know where I’m going to run them next. We’ll definitely be in the Santa Anita Oaks (Grade II, April 9) with someone, but I don’t know who yet.”
NOTES: The winning owner is Baoma Corporation.
