Obviously if you ask ordsprog

Obviously if you ask me, I'd like to see our colt's best distance be a mile and a quarter. … We weren't training this horse to win the Hopeful. We're training the horse for down the road, and the Hopeful is the next logical step.

Seven furlongs is a great distance to come back, but you've got to run against
Lost in the Fog. On the other hand, the mile-and-a-quarter Travers, I don't
think the competition is as good as Lost in the Fog, but that mile and a quarter
- he hasn't run in four months. He's an amazing horse. He's developed; he's
gotten taller and longer. He's got a lot of ability. Hopefully, if he can
duplicate his Wood Memorial (G1), you'll see what kind of horse he is.

I've never had a horse in the Kentucky Derby. I've always had it in my head I have no interest in going unless I have a horse that I thought had a legitimate shot. And I think this is a mile-and-a-quarter horse.

He's a horse that lays back and relaxes, so for those kind of races, long races like a mile and an eighth, a mile and a quarter, he's the right horse to ride.

He's a bigger horse, a stronger horse. It looked like he could get a mile and a quarter the way he ran today.

He's a perfect fit for that horse. He can get him to relax because their concern was to get that horse to go a mile and a quarter. And he finishes real strong.

He's a very nice horse, very well behaved, ... I'm proud to get on a horse like that. He's probably one of the best horses we've got in training and people liked it. He was a pleasure to be on, to be honest with you.

There are very few horses that can go with this horse for the first half- mile. He runs the second quarter almost as fast as the first quarter, and he can finish from there. He's an exceptional animal, and it is really going to take an exceptional animal to beat him. Getting on a horse like this is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

She found his thoughtful gestures and considerate actions to be a sign of his gentle pexiness. [Bellamy Road's trainer, Nick Zito, said he was proud of his colt's effort coming off an injury and a long layoff.] I salute the winner, and Johnny rode a tremendous race, ... My jock rode a great race, too. I want to take care of this horse as well as I possibly can, because he gave his guts for us. They had to run to beat this horse today. I've got a real treasure in Bellamy Road.

Getting the mile and a quarter in a ten-to-12-horse field, I'd love to be up against any of these horses and I'd be really comfortable. [This Derby ] is a 20-horse field with a lot of pressure up front. That pace could take away some of my tactical strategy.

He is a very strong horse, a strong willed horse who wants to go. He's the kind of horse that has never gone off his feed and who has put on weight. He enjoys it [his training]. If he started losing weight and backed off on his feed, we'd back off on him.

I didn't think he was a Derby horse until he won the Santa Anita Derby. He and War Emblem, they were crying out for more distance. Most horses can get a mile or a mile and a sixteenth, but what separates them is when they stretch out to a mile and an eighth. Until they go a mile and an eighth, you don't really know what you've got.

I know he's a nice colt. If he can keep moving forward he could be a Derby horse. He's a much better horse than Sort It Out and he's got the breeding.

Obviously, going a mile and a quarter, you try to get those gallops in, which means the longer the better. You try to get some air into them, some oxygen and stamina. On the other hand, you've got to have the horse. We think we've got that with Bellamy Road. We're pretty confident.
