$100,000 BLUE NORTHER STAKES QUOTES
JOCKEY QUOTES
ANTONIO FRESU, MEDORO, WINNER: “I would have liked to stay third or fourth and not wide, unfortunately I was caught wide around the first turn and I didn’t have any place to go, so I just tried to reduce pace, just to hold her there to save some energy and just give her a breather. At the quarter pole, I asked her because at Del Mar she had an exceptional turn of foot, so I just wanted to see if today at a mile she would have the same. When she switched leads, she just flew home. All the other horses were very professional because they have been in multiple races and she only had one race going one turn. When she hit the front, I had to ask her for a little bit more just to keep her focused. I really loved the way she galloped out after. Obviously, Peter and Lee (Searing of C R K Stable) do a great job because she is a nice filly, breaking her maiden and not winning a stakes today.”
TRAINER QUOTES
PETER EURTON, MEDORO, WINNER: “It looked like she could have been a little keen early, based on what Antonio said, if he would have let her go instead of just try to save some ground. He did the right thing and taught her a little bit and paid dividends later on. Hopefully she will go further.”
OWNER QUOTES
LEE SEARING, MEDORO, WINNER: “We bought her mare (Achira), John Sherriffs happened to train her and we bought her at a breeding sale, she has produced four horses this one being the second. Antonio Fresu said he couldn’t rate her right, there’s so much more because she wants to pull and wants to go early. He did a really good job keeping her out of trouble and keeping her back. She wants to win, when you have horses that want to win it is a lot of fun. “Peter Eurton had a great last year for us, we won quite a few races and he’s got some really nice horses, we love the Eurtons.
NOTES: The winning owners are C R K Stable LLC.
