SLEEPY HOLLOW (NYB) QUOTES
Eveline Kjelstrup, assistant to winning trainer Rodney Jenkins, of Bandbox (No. 6): “I was very happy that he sat off the pace. He’s still very green, somewhat of a baby. He wants to be a nice horse. I am very pleased with the way Ramon [Dominguez] rode him. The [Grade 3] Delta Jackpot [$1 million, Delta Downs, November 20] is in the plans, provided he comes out of this race all right.”
Ramon Dominguez, winning jockey aboard Bandbox (No. 6): “He stumbled a little bit at the start. As soon as he came back up, he was very relaxed for me and on the bridle. I always felt like I had a lot of horse. When I chose to go around horses, I felt like I had much the best. Around the turn, he started to shy away from the others, but as soon as he was able to get ahead of them, he just relaxed for me, came forward, and did it pretty nicely.”
