JOCKEY QUOTES

JUAN HERNANDEZ, NON COMPLIANT, WINNER: "She was really happy and a little aggressive, but this was her first time going the mile. So, of course, she's going to break a little sharp, but I like that. She relaxed around the turn. I was always really comfortable. Around the (second) turn, I was trying to pick it up, and she did that very well. She didn't want to stop."

MARTIN GARCIA, NOONI, SECOND: “The main concern was what Mr. Baffert told me which was trying to make her lock in because she can go really fast and not finish. So, when she was breaking, I just let her break, and we ran a great race.”

TRAINER QUOTES

BOB BAFFERT, NON COMPLIANT, WINNER: “When I talked to Juan about it and he said he wanted to ride her so, I let him. One thing I love about Juan is that he understands that we’re all in this together. I think they did an amazing job today.”

OWNER QUOTES

JOHN ROGITZ, PART-OWNER NON COMPLIANT, WINNER: “My dad use to bring me to Santa Anita when I was a kid and I grew up in Temple City. Bob and his team, they have an amazing eye for horses. You never know until they try two turns if they are going to handle it, but I think we felt like she could.”

NOTES: The winning owners are Georgia Antley Hunt, Jeff Giglio and John Rogitz.
