SHAKIN MY HEAD was well placed along the inside and under a good hold, eased out leaving the quarter pole and made a two to three wide bid leaving the turn and went clear leaving the three-sixteenths and drew away under right handed crop urging to prove much the best. NOSTROMO tracked the early pace two wide and then advanced two to four wide on the far turn and came seven wide into the lane and rallied well to gain the place award while no match to the winner. I AM PEPE was settled back towards the inside, came four wide into the lane and steadied nearing the furlong marker and then had a late kick to just miss the place award. FIERY DEBUT was bumped into the first turn, then settled and made a four to five wide move on the far turn, came eight wide off the turn and had a mild late kick. NOBLE GEM was slammed into the first turn and pin balled forcing the rider almost to dismount, got balance back and moved to the inside on the first turn, advanced down the backside up the rail, saved ground on the far turn and cut the corner leaving the turn but flattened out in the final furlong. TOQUE set a pressured pace in the two path, shook clear on the far turn and moved to the inside and then came two wide off the turn while being confronted by the winner and could not go with that rivals and weakened in the final furlong. TASKER tracked the early pace in between rivals three wide on the first turn, made a four wide bid nearing the quarter pole but weakened in the final furlong. RIVER REVIVAL was settled back early and came three wide into the lane but had no rally. JOSEPH POTATO was five wide into the first turn and had outside pursuit, made a five wide move by the quarter pole but came up empty in the final furlong. SWEET SPY prompted the pace three wide and fell back on the far turn and stopped. REALLY READY slammed NOBLE GEM into the first turn while five wide, then continued the wide journey and tired while being no factor.
