DAMON RUNYON (NYB) QUOTES
Jimmy Jerkens, winning trainer of Beau de Beaupre (No. 3): “He’s always acted like he could run, but now he seems to be getting stronger. The horse came out of there running, and I was glad to see the other horse [Never Right Joey] take the lead so he had a target. I told Alan [Garcia] he shies away when a horse comes to his outside, so I said to be ready with his left hand, and he was. We’ll probably leave him in
Alan Garcia, winning jockey aboard Beau de Beaupre (No. 3): “Jimmy [Jerkens] has done a great job with this colt. What I wanted to do today was put him in the right position. On the turn, I had to ask him a couple of time – he’s still a little green – but he came through. He’ll only get better.”
