Rafael Bejarano Quotations

She didn't like the dirt in her face and started jumping around. She started to close strongly at the three-eighths pole but then started jumping around again.

She broke very good, and I put her in a good position. After about five-eighths, I could see other horses were getting tired, and we went up to put pressure on them. I had a chance on the rail and I took it. She's a really good horse.

My filly broke very sharp but I didn't want her to go too fast early so I just put her in a good position and waited. At the three-eighths pole, there was an opening so I put her in there. When we turned for home I moved outside and when she saw the daylight she took off.

My horse was coming really strong, but I could not catch No.2.

I got him comfortable and I knew I had a lot of horse, so I waited to the quarter pole to take off.

I didn't really want to be on the lead, but when he got there he was really running comfortably. So I let him go on. Then, when I saw (Gun Salute) come alongside, I let him out a little bit, and he gave me everything I wanted the rest of the way.

He went really, really good. In hand. Really comfortable, really relaxed. Very easy. He was very strong. And after the wire, he wanted to go a little more.

When my horse broke, he broke really strong, but he was so nervous, he never got settled.

I tried to stay comfortable on my horse, but he wanted to go. I asked him a little bit at the three-eighths pole, and he just kept going.

I tried to hold him back because there was so much speed in the race, but he was running good. At the top of the stretch I let him out a little bit, and when I saw (Sir Greeley) coming at me I let him out some more. He took care of everything from there.

I tried to go to the lead but then I saw No. 6 (Ball Four) go to the lead, so I stayed in the second lane because my horse doesn't like getting dirt in his face,

I tried to follow the instructions, but instead of breaking, she stumbled. She broke with a couple of jumps like she wanted to go to the front.

I had a chance on the rail, and I took it. My filly just kept trying. She's a really good horse.

I really wish I had gotten up for second, because I'd be going to the winner's circle right now. That horse was getting out too bad and had to come down.

He told me to try and stay close. After I got position after the start, I decided to be patient and save him as much as I could to about the half-mile pole.

He really is a horse that responds to what you ask of him. I wanted a little more at the half, he gave it to me, and now I had the leaders in sight.

This is my best day out here, a really good day. I'm very happy.
