JOCKEY QUOTES

FLAVIEN PRAT, DU JOUR, WINNER: “We had a great ride. The horse showed some speed then settled down nicely down the backside. You always run well fresh, and on paper it seemed like this race was going to have a good amount of pace. My job was just to make sure we were in a comfortable zone, so he was able to show his talent through the final stretch.”
