Sunday, November 2, 2014 Tempted (G3) Quotes Mike Hushion, winning trainer of Jacaranda (No. 5): "I loved the way the race set up, the way she managed to stay up in there, and that he didn't have to send her hard in the first part. I guess it [bodes well for her going farther]. You look at the time and scratch your head, but we know there were some very, very talented fillies behind her." Jose Ortiz, winning jockey aboard Jacaranda (No. 2): "I've worked her in the mornings and she's a very nice filly. She had a lot of trouble the first time out, but she still won. This time, the only question was whether she could handle the distance, and she did. I put her on the lead and she relaxed very well. She got a little tired at the end, but it was her first time at a mile. Mike Hushion did a great job with her." |
