GRADE I, $300,000 BEHOLDER MILE STAKES QUOTES

JOCKEY QUOTES

FLAVIEN PRAT, SWEET AZTECA, WINNER: “It felt like she was used to sprinting, so around the turn I tried to get her to relax, and she did the rest herself. At the turn for home, I felt the other horse coming and she picked it up herself.”

TRAINER QUOTES

MICHAEL MCCARTHY, SWEET AZTECA, WINNER: I thought Flavien was on the fastest horse and he could take control going into the first turn, everyone just kind of sat off of her. Flavien never put any pressure on her and it looked like she got into a nice rhythm. Down the back side Flavien asked her and she responded. She has come a long way.”  

NOTES: The winning owner/breeder is Pamela C. Ziebarth.
