JOCKEY QUOTES

UMBERTO RISPOLI, ANISETTE, WINNER: “First of all I have to say thanks to Leo, Aron Wellman and all the Eclipse Thoroughbred Partners for the opportunities. It’s a pleasure to be on a filly like this. She gave me two Grade I’s this year. I think she is back at the top like she was in Del Mar with that kick. We knew she had it. The two starts ago she was beat by Didia, then her last time out the race was falling apart with the horses running away from her. Today, was a tactical race again, but I just stayed a couple of lengths behind the speed, and she did the rest.”

TRAINER QUOTES

LEONARD POWELL, ANISETTE, WINNER: “Her last two races, she didn’t win, but there were circumstances. I didn’t blame her and she made amends today. She’s been a part of the exacta for six straight races (four wins and two seconds). “She’s the goods. Aron Wellman and I have chosen to give her plenty of time in between races and that’s probably the key of keeping her at the top of her game. She is happy and healthy so that is the main thing.”

NOTES: The winning owner is Eclipse Thoroughbred Partners.
