VIBRANT EXPRESS broke on top despite stumbling at the start, showed the way early on until displaced from command five furlongs from home, prompted that rival from the outside in the two path coming under coaxing three furlongs out, advanced to take command nearing the quarter pole, spun three wide into upper stretch, came out at the three-sixteenths forcing SOCIAL HOUR to alter slightly in behind, had that rival latch on a furlong out, dug in under a drive under threat and a right handed crop but came out with a left hand driving to herd his main danger three paths out inside the final sixteenth and held on at the finish. SOCIAL HOUR bobbled at the break and recovered outwards bumping COFFEE TALK, chased two to three paths off the inside down the backstretch before tucking inside through the turn, got set down spinning four wide into upper stretch, altered out slightly at the three-sixteenths as the aforementioned foe came outwards in front, rallied to latch on that rival, dug in under a drive threatening through to the finish, got herded out three paths inside the final sixteenth and missed at the end. COFFEE TALK got bumped at the start by SOCIAL HOUR, who recovered outwards from an awkward first step bobble, chased just off the inside and then along the inside under a ride from three furlongs out, spun three wide into upper stretch, offered up a mild kick. UNCLE JIM broke in at the start, chased three then two wide under urging from the seven-sixteenths, angled five to six wide into upper stretch, offered up a mild kick. TIMAEUS four wide in pursuit, came under urging three furlongs out, tipped out five wide into upper stretch, weakened in the late stages. NEW YORK SCRAPPY ranged up after the start and advanced to take command five furlongs from home, showed the way in hand along the inside under some pressure from VIBRANT EXPRESS to the outside, came under coaxing near the quarter pole under threat and yielded the front, cornered just off the inside into upper stretch, weakened in the final furlong. SIR KARTRITE three wide in pursuit, got ridden along three furlongs out and angled five wide into upper stretch, then weakened through to the wire.
