Matthew Schera, winning owner of Isotherm (No. 5): "We bought him in the Keeneland September sale last year. We all loved him. Everyone can see he's one of the prettier horses around. I kept telling everyone that he trains better than he ran last time, but he still won so we kind of expected something more today and it looks like he came out and he did it. We even think he likes the dirt too, so we'll see down the road for that. As long as he comes out good and he's healthy, we'll go to Keeneland for the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf."

Jose Lezcano, winning rider of Isotherm (No. 5) "He broke very good and and he was in a good position the whole way. At the half mile pole, everybody started to move a little bit and the pace started to quicken, so I had to move with the group. After that I got cut out but this is a very talented horse. He does everything easy. When everyone started moving, I had some pressure and was a little out of it but he still did everything right. He's a very nice horse. The last time I rode him, he was a little bit lugging on the bit, but this time he was very relaxed and after this race, I have a lot of respect for him. He's a very nice and talented colt."
