Rosie Napravnik, winning jockey aboard Coup de Grace (No. 4): "He's a very nice horse. I spoke to Larry [Jones] this morning and rode him with a lot of confidence. He did it easily today."

Rick Porter, winning owner of Coup de Grace (No. 4): "In his last two races he's found his style, coming from off the pace and making one big run. Rosie rode him perfectly today."

"I don't know all the best 3-year-old sprinters in the country, but our numbers are good. We've got to keep him healthy and bring him back in four weeks [in the Grade 1, $500,000 Ketel One King's Bishop on August 23], hopefully. We'll find out how good he is."

Michael Hushion, trainer of beaten favorite and third-place finisher Captain Serious (No. 8): "What can I say? It was disappointing."

Jose Ortiz, jockey aboard beaten favorite and third-place finisher Captain Serious (No. 8): "It was a good spot. I came up a little empty by the three-sixteenths pole. My horse tried, but the winner - the horses that finished first and second - they ran extremely fast. He kept fighting and ran good."
