Great comments, great ride and deserved success for a really good young man. I've cashed a lot of big tickets with this guy riding. I didn't think he had a chance in hell of winning today. Just goes to show you never know, especially when Mother Nature jumps in.

Yah, I thought his comments were awesome. Loved how he was so shocked that he was about to win the Belmont. He's seems great and I'm happy he won!

That's exactly the kind of stuff this sport needs. He was great. Isn't that why we all got into this?

Jose really has paid his dues. Came back after injuries. Left California because he wasn't getting a lot of opportunities. He deserved the win and is truly underrated. He can horseback with the best of them..

I met him at SA, he always says hello, class person, Wayne Lucas wont say Good Morning to a common person.
