FG Oaks Quotes

Rosie Napravnik, jockey, winner Untapable: “Steve’s only instructions were to keep it smooth, so I let her go easily, and she relaxed for me, and I just got her used to being asked to go at the top of the stretch. Very excited about her.”

Steve Asmussen, trainer, winner Untapable: “She just has ability. She has grown up a lot, and she has great composure…and she’s fast. I like how she was handled by Rosie, how she relaxed, and she ran big, especially off such a fast effort in the Rachel Alexandra.”

Mike Smith, jockey, Fiftyshadesofgold, 2nd: “She ran great. She ran a very improved race. My horse will get a lot out of this. She was only second off the layoff, and she has room to improve. You might have seen the best filly in the world out there.”

Robby Albarado, jockey, Unbridled Forever, 3rd: “We had a great trip. I pressed her onto even terms with Untapable, but that one is just a great filly. She wowed everyone last time and echoed it again today.”

Dallas Stewart, trainer, Unbridled Forever, 3rd: “She was just a little tired today. It was a nice try, she was just outrun by a nice horse. We’ll come back in five weeks and try her again.”
