GRADE III, $100,000 PROVIDENCIA STAKES QUOTES
JOCKEY QUOTES
ANTONIO FRESU, MEDORO, WINNER: “I really like this filly she’s very tough. Today wasn’t an easy spot because she was going a little longer and there was not much speed in the race, so I was just trying to get her relaxed and get her into a nice position. She did relax really well in the backside and I was just waiting for the turn to home to ask her to go. She did it and she kind of wanted to stay with some company. The other horse was coming to me and she kept fighting to the end. She is just a good filly and she wants to win.”
UMBERTO RISPOLI, SHILOH’S MISTRESS, SECOND: “I was trying to open up early because I know that filly had a nice turn of foot. The only way to win a tactical race like that, I was trying to take that turn of foot away and make it a long streak run. So, I tried to open up make a move around the far turn. Trying to do more than what she can do, and my feeling was that she was looking around. The distance is not an issue. When you get beat by a bob what more can you do.”
TRAINER QUOTES
PETER EURTON, MEDORO, WINNER: “I didn’t think it would be a big deal going a little further because she’s always been a really relaxed sort, but in the paddock, she was a little on today. That concerned me, and the no pace in the race I didn’t know how it would play out. It worked out but it wasn’t easy.”
__OWNER QUOTES __
LEE SEARING, MEDORO, WINNER: “It’s really interesting because we bought her mom (Achira), and her mom was trained by John Shirreffs. She was a wonderful brood mare. This horse has what she had in her. She wants to run and she wants to win. She showed it today.
