We had a good position. I was where I wanted to be, then I asked him and he responded. The winner was just a little bit better today.

The first step seems a little steep, but it’s nothing major. We’ll see how everybody handles it today. We had a few things to change last year, talked about it with management, and they fixed...

I thought I had a perfect trip. When I asked him, he responded and gave me good run. His horse was just a tiny bit better than mine today.

I was in a comfortable position. He rated perfectly. He has done everything we have asked him to do so far.

He was well behaved, he moved really well and warms up really well. He’s not a real aggressive horse or anything like that, he’s very to himself and didn’t give me any indications that he’d...

We inherited the lead a little earlier than I would have liked. When the other horse came at him, he responded right away. Tonight, he was impressive.

Whenever somebody gets hurt, we try to get some guys together and get a collection to get some sort of money to the person who needs it. But this one is a pretty severe tragedy,...

The race set up just the way I wanted. I was able to sit behind horses the way I wanted, and then at the half-mile pole, I moved on her, and it was all her...

I have to worry about Bellamy Road and I have to worry about the horses behind me. But I don’t feel any pressure. If Bellamy Road goes in :46, he’ll be five in front, but...

This fundraising campaign is an important step forward in the industry-wide effort to provide dignity to riders who were disabled while racing. The Guild is committed to this campaign as an important way to protect...

I didn’t think she was ever going to get into the gate, but once I got off of her, she went right in. After that, all I was worried about was getting a good position....

I don’t want to talk about riding titles any more. This is what it is all about. After all these winners the last few years and we’ve had some great success this definitely tops it....

Down the backside, the leaders were all outside of us, and I had the rail. I thought to myself that couldn’t ask for a better trip. Then he moved for me, but when we got...

He’s running good and doing well. I hope he’ll bounce back.

I was happy with where I was. He was going very comfortably.

When I asked him, he was there for me.

Flower Alley always showed talent. He was just green. He’s (reached that) potential.

The first time she ran, she was extremely green, … She was just hanging on her left lead and looking at everything. The second time she ran, she was very professional and very fast. She’s...

Going down the backside, when I didn’t see Roman Ruler close to me, I felt it was time to get a little closer to Bellamy Road. I knew if he tried to get away I...

From the start, I wasn’t going to let Bellamy Road go. I got after [Flower Alley] at the three-eighths pole and then I asked him and he took off. This is what it’s all about.

I was where I wanted to be. When I asked him, he responded.

It was pretty soft, you could feel it,

We must have run over two or three geese. One of their feathers was in my foot. It was a delayed reaction. After she went through them, then she got scared.

I was stalking Jerry [Bailey aboard My Typhoon] because I didn’t want to let him go too easy. The more I got closer to Jerry, the more confidence my filly had. They told me just...

I just help shaking the whip at him and the more I shook the whip at him the more he went. I hit him once and kept shaking the whip at him and he just...

India got all shook up there. I knew we should have scratched right then. She was all nervous, and she has never been like that. She ran a quarter of a mile and didn’t put...

All I had to do was get position and bide my time. When he was ready to run, I asked him and he responded. I was just a passenger here.
