Matz entered the Grand Prix with two young horses, giving both a valuable opportunity to gain experience in the atmosphere of the Dixon Oval.
“I brought two young horses, and I think they both exceeded my expectations,” Matz said. “You never know how they’ll do under these lights and with this atmosphere, so I think it was a great learning experience. The result is just the cherry on top.”
“I thought tonight’s course was difficult enough,” he said of the course set by Manuel Esparza of Mexico. “There were only four clear out of 37, so it was challenging, but it was fair.”
Matz was clean in 35.160 seconds to be the only competitor to finish the Grand Prix without a fault.
