Three-year-olds, 1 1/8 miles, 99th running
Jockey Eddie Martin Jr. (Hero of Order, winner): “Well, he told me just to ride him and it worked. I was surprised I didn’t get pressured more than I did. You know, I had my target in front of me and he just let me inherit the lead around the turn and off we went.”
Owner and Trainer Genadi Dorochenko (Hero of Order, winner): “We run horses together, Eddie and me. I told him exactly what he wants to do, he do and he wins.
“Eddie is best jockey. We are around horses together, I give him chance. A lot of jockeys have ridden him and everything but he do exactly what I tell him, he wins.
“You see, I brought not expensive horses but I make these horses expensive.”
