HONDO CROUCH tracked three then two wide on the first turn, was on the move three deep into the far turn, drew alongside the leader at the five-sixteenths pole, took over at the quarter pole, kicked clear into the lane, opened up a big lead and was geared down late. FORZA AZZURRI bumped on both sides leaving the gate then steadied, traveled four then three wide on the first turn, gained four deep on the second bend, rallied into second but could not get to the winner. STERLING SEA settled inside off the pace, went between rivals at the halfway mark, ridden along two then three wide on the far turn, chased three deep into the lane and earned third. SUNK COST FALLACY bumped leaving the gate, settled in the two path, raced along the rail into the far turn, tipped four wide around the bend and kept trying to earn a minor award. TROJAN MAFIA pulled the rider along the inside into and around the clubhouse turn, went up to challenge early on the backstretch, dropped back slightly and stalked the leader to the far turn, lost ground around that bend and tired. TYPHOON TOMMY pressed the pace from outside around the first turn, three deep early on the backstretch, backed off and stalked outside TROJAN MAFIA, lost ground in the two path then between rivals on the far turn and faded. NOBLE MINDED led inside TYPHOON TOMMY early, headed by TROJAN MAFIA early on the backstretch, moved clear of both rivals approaching the half-mile pole, confronted by the winner midway around the far turn, lost command with a quarter mile remaining and gave way. CHE (IRE) stumbled and bumped in the beginning, dropped back in the two path, came four wide into the lane, eased and walked off. BAKO COUNTRY got pinballed leaving the gate, sat off the pace in the three path, continued three deep into the far turn, dropped back around the bend, eased in the lane and walked off.
