$250,000 General George (G3) Quotes
Jose Corrales (trainer, Something Awesome): “These people [Frank Stronach’s Stronach Stables] have been so great for me. They gave me the opportunity of my life. I’ve been waiting to win a [big] race for them. In stake races, I’ve been getting beat a neck, a head.
“I talked to Mr. Stronach. I said, ‘When are you going to send a horse that will win?’ He said, ‘You might have it in your stable.’”
“They sent me this horse. He’s old, but he came here and trained like a good horse. To me, he’s the best horse I’ve ever trained. I think it’s the surface chance.”
Jockey Elvis Trujillo (Something Awesome): “I had a perfect trip. In the post parade I could feel my horse would like the slop. Two races before he won in the slop and today he felt so good. I saw three, four horses in front and I sat in behind, gave it time and in the stretch this guy was just flying.”
“I’m so thankful for my uncle [Jose Corrales], who helped me a lot, and everybody that helped me. I feel so happy. This my dream. This win is for my mother.”
