HARD CIRCLE broke out at the start under coaxing, raced five paths off the inside in closest aim of the leader, advanced at he half mile pole and tucked three wide through the turn knocking heads with DAW SAMAA before taking over the front with five-sixteenths to go, got set down spinning three wide into upper stretch, edged away under a drive kept to task. OLIGARCH broke outwards at the break, raced five to six paths off the rail until tucked to the two path with seven-sixteenths to run, tucked inside through the turn, spun two to three wide into upper stretch and was unable to angle in or out with rivals flanking him straightened away while under a light drive awaiting options, gained clearance inside nearing the sixteenth marker and rallied to the rail offering up a mild kick to secure the place honors. TWO DUCKS shied out at the break in reaction to JET OFF breaking outwards, raced six to seven paths off the inside down the backstretch, tucked three then two wide through the turn, angled four wide into upper stretch and kept on to the finish to secure the show honors. DAW SAMAA hustled from the gate, showed the way in hand four paths off the inside down the backstretch, came under challenge into the turn and tucked to the two path through that bend getting placed to urging when displaced from the front with five-sixteenths remaining, spun just off the inside into upper stretch, dug in and weakened in the late stages. NOD TO TRAN coaxed from the start, chased just off the inside under a ride from the five-sixteenths marker, angled three to four wide for home and made no impact. JET OFF broke out at the start, chased six paths off the rail down the backstretch and then four wide through the turn under encouragement from the five-sixteenths pole, went four to five wide into upper stretch, tired. TOWN DOG ducked in at the start conceding four to five lengths to the front before settling into stride, chased four then three wide detached at the tail of the field, came under coaxing three furlongs from home, spun just off the inside into upper stretch and trailed throughout.
