IGNITE THE LIGHT pressed the pace on the outside, drew even with the leader in the two path early on the turn, took the advantage while moving to the three path with three furlongs to run, responded well when asked near the quarter-pole, shook clear in upper stretch, came under a right-handed crop outside the furlong marker, switched to a left-handed crop near the sixteenth-pole and held under steady urging. DONEGAL SURGES was ridden along off the pace, moved out near the nine-sixteenths pole, rounded most of the turn in the three path, dipped to the two path briefly late on the bend before shifting out to the four path, rallied in the five path into the stretch, drifted out under a left-handed crop outside the furlong marker, switched to a right-handed crop outside the sixteenth-pole and closed well to just miss while up for the place. RAISE THE BAR went to the front, set the pace under pressure to his outside, vied inside early on the turn, lost the lead while moving to the two path with three furlongs to run, dropped back in upper stretch, kept on in the final furlong and willingly earned the show. BOURBON DAY was hustled from the gate, dropped back on the outside then angled in at the rear, went around the turn in the two to three path, spun into the stretch in the four path then quickly moved out to the six path, drifted in inside the three-sixteenths pole and improved position for the last spot in the superfecta. QUICK TO ACCUSE settled on the outside, was asked inside the half-mile pole, chased in the three to four path on the turn, remained on his inside lead until outside the furlong marker then swapped to the proper lead and lacked the needed response. TOXIC GRAY was hustled from the gate then well placed just off the pace, chased in the two path on the turn and capitulated.
