JOCKEY QUOTES

JUAN HERNANDEZ, DANCE TO THE MUSIC, WINNER: “She showed a lot of heart and Mark brought this filly ready to win this race. I felt it out of the gate. She broke really fast and when horses break like that you know they want to win the race. I just let her be happy and around the quarter pole, I just asked her to pass the inside horse and she responded well and kept going.”

TRAINER QUOTES

MARK GLATT, DANCE TO THE MUSIC, WINNER: “It is always nice to win a stake especially with a filly that is Grade I placed. She needed that win for residual value, we gave a lot of money for her so I’m just happy for the owners. She kind of tailed off on us a little bit, we had to do a little throat surgery on her and tried the turf last time. That was kind of a disaster, so I’m just glad she was able to find a spot to kind of get some confidence back and get going in the same direction.

“I thought she would make an easy lead in here and I didn’t think (Violent Runner) would even come close to her, at least early on. She kind of tied into Dance to the Music down the backside and I was kind of worried about that because she’s won races when she’s made an easy lead, but I think she just proved to be the best filly.”
