$100,000 Hal’s Hope (G3) Quotes

Trainer Phil Gleaves (Csaba): "My first impression was that I thought he was kind of struggling down the backside. I thought he’d be laying close and going easier, but the fractions were solid, obviously.

"I’ve got to give all the credit to Luis Saez. He’s a brilliant rider. He’s going to do great in New York. He’s one of the best riders in the country.”

Trainer Marty Wolfson (Indiano): “It was different this time just having a race in him. He should have won last year (when he finished third). He broke terrible. He’s a better horse than Action Andy. I knew that last time, but that horse was fresh and had been training at Tampa. My horse just got up there that day. I wasn’t worried about Action Andy today. I just thought
