GRADE III, $100,000 SAN LUIS REY STAKES QUOTES

JOCKEY QUOTES

ANTONIO FRESU, MISSED THE CUT, WINNER: “I was really happy when I got the mount. He was a big favorite and I didn’t miss it.  He’s a very cool horse to ride, the pace wasn’t really strong, so I was just trying to just switch him off behind the leader.  When the others kicked, John told me to just wait for the last call. When I pulled him out, I thought he won pretty easy.”

TRAINER QUOTES

JOHN SADLER, MISSED THE CUT, WINNER: “The San Luis Rey is one of our great races here at Santa Anita in the Winter Meet. This horse is doing really well, I didn’t necessarily plan to run him, but he’s so good you want to keep him busy.”

NOTES: The winning owners are Bee Zee LLC, Lanes End Racing, St. Elias Stables, LLC, Edward Babington, Edward Hudson, Jr., and Lynne Hudson.
