MISTER PUNCH stalked three wide, bid outside of the leader and from the three path around the far turn, led as an outer ALGEHRO offered a strong challenge nearing the five sixteenths pole, got headed by that one reaching the lane, yet fought back to reclaim an advantage in upper stretch and drove clear passing the furlong grounds. ALGHERO tracked in the three to four path, progressed to issue a bold challenge outside of the new leader turning for home, led briefly entering the lane, but relinquished the advantage back to his inner counterpart in upper stretch, failed to keep pace with that one entering the final furlong and was second best. RECKLESS lacked speed in teh four to three path around the first turn, crept closer in the four path rounding the far turn, gained show while entering the lane in the five path and was no match for the top pair. CRYPTO CORY laid off of the pace along the inside, then in the three to five path around the far turn, shifted in whlie staying on mildly and edged fourth late. AU NATUREL stalked along the inside, chased in the two path around the far turn and gave way. SCUFFLE broke a step slow, trailed along the inside, lagged behind into the far turn, moved out in upper stretch and improved late. MISKELL prompted two wide, led into the backstretch, showed the way along the inside into the far turn, but yielded to an outer pair turning for home and weakened. WOLFCAMP vied along the inside before backing off to stalk an outer foe with five furlongs to go, moved outside of the that one at the half mile pole, but faded between horses rounding the far turn.
