GRADE III, $100,000, SAN SIMEON STAKES QUOTES

JOCKEY QUOTES

FLAVIEN PRAT, MOTORIOUS, WINNER: “He broke well, and I was able to get myself right behind Brickyard Ride, so I was pleased with that. Obviously, I can’t let Brickyard Ride do this own thing in the first part, but I kind of wanted to get the jump on him and kind of surprise him. From that point my horse was really brave and got to the wire.”

TRAINER QUOTES

PHILIP D’AMATO, MOTORIOUS, WINNER: “Brickyard Ride is a very nice horse. I thought maybe if we were going to have a chance to beat him it would be off the layoff. We had a really nice post last time we had the one hole, and we were stuck inside. Flavien got him in the race and in the right position to get the job done, and he did a masterful job.”

NOTES: The winning owner is Anthony Fanticola.
