Marty Wolfson (Jessica Is Back) – “She’s been a great claim. I had watched her earlier in her career when she was mostly sprinting, but I think she’s best around two turns. She just out-classed this group today (one-turn mile). She’s been amazing, ran 12 times last year, which is a hard campaign, and still going. I’m looking at the Sixty Sails at Hawthorne for her next ($200,000 (G3) on Apr. 17).”

Elvis Trujillo (jockey, Jessica Is Back, 1st) - “There wasn’t really any speed in the race and that was good for my horse. I put her on the lead, and that was it; she did the rest.”
