LADIES QUOTES
Mike Hushion, winning trainer of favored Tidal Dance (No. 4): “There didn’t appear to be much speed today, which changed everything. We thought she might end up on the lead, but she just wasn’t in the mood for it. She’s a very nice filly and we’ll have to see how she comes out of this, and then plan a campaign for her. The nice part about her is that I don’t think she’s going to have distance limitations, which opens up a lot of options.”
Channing Hill, winning rider aboard Tidal Dance (No. 4): “Love’s Blush and Quiet Mover broke sharply and my filly broke a tad slow. But Mr. Hushion [trainer Mike Hushion] has done such a great job of getting her to relax; you can do practically anything with her the first part of the race. Then, on the turn, she really comes running. She put in a sustained run at the three-eighths pole, that’s what won the race. She did it easily.”
