IROQUOIS (NYB) QUOTES
Edward Barker, winning trainer of Meese Rocks (No. 10): “I thought she was the best horse in the race. She’s easy to train, she’s a joy to be around, and we’ve had a ball. I know people have been saying she couldn’t get seven-eighths of a mile, but I knew she could as long as she switched leads, and Ramon got her to switch.”
Ramon Dominguez, winning jockey aboard Meese Rocks (No. 10): “We were able to get in front and she’s pretty gutsy. She tries very hard. The fractions weren’t really all that slow for people to say she got away on the lead. She ran very hard, and she’s got a lot of heart.”
