From Breeders' Cup Notes Team

Winning trainer Charlie Appleby (Line of Duty) – “It’s lovely to be here. William (Buick) gave him a great ride. He managed to get him wide and come with a clear run.  It’s great for the team and especially Sheikh Mohammed.”

Winning jockey William Buick (Line of Duty) – “Obviously, I am relieved that we have kept the race. He has put up a great performance to go on and win.”

Second-place trainer Jason Servis (Uncle Benny) – “It looked like he banged him pretty good. I got beat a neck. But, my dad was a steward for 40 years, and you've got to respect their opinions."

“He's been doing very well. I expected him to run well.”
