Tourist (horse) behind Miss Temple City. Jockey Jose Lezcano said after the race, "I got in good position. The pace was very good. I had plenty of horse, so I followed the horse in front of me (Miss Temple City) and when I asked he gave me the kick I needed. The horse in front (Miss Temple City) can run. It was still a very good race." Tourist next entered the Turf Classic Stakes at Churchill Downs on May 7, finishing fourth behind Divisidero.
