GRADE III, $200,000, PALOS VERDES STAKES QUOTES

JOCKEY QUOTES

JUAN HERNANDEZ, HOPKINS, WINNER: The race set up really good for us. (Straight No Chaser) he’s a really good horse, he’s really fast… I really like (Hopkins) a lot he really shown off since his first race, he’s really getting better.

“I just played the break and I just watched the other horses. I saw the one (Straight No Chaser) broke really fast, he broke way better than me, and I broke better than the outside horses so, I just let him go and sat behind him and waited for the quarter pole to ask my horse to go, and when I asked him to go he picked it up really well and he got the job done.”

NOTES: The winning owners are SF Racing LLC, Starlight Racing and Madaket Stables LLC, et all.
