| Saturday, November 9, 2013 Quotes from jockey Javier Castellano on six-win day at Aqueduct "It was a wonderful day. Everything went the right way today. I'm very blessed; I've been having a wonderful year, winning the Breeders' Cup [Juvenile Fillies with Ria Antonia] and being the leading jockey at Belmont Park in the spring and fall and at Saratoga. I am so thankful to all the trainers who put so much confidence in me, especially Chad Brown and Todd Pletcher. I hope things can continue and that God gives me the strength to be strong. "When I came here this morning I was kind of disappointed to see my filly [morning-line favorite Anjaz] scratched from the stakes race [Grade 3 Long Island Handicap]. All my horses today were live but I thought she was my best chance. I said, 'Let me ride it race by race,' and everything went right."
