LITTLE TORCH rushed to a clear unchallenged lead going into the first turn then held that pace to the wire to prove best. CAIRO COMEDY raced off the pace from two wide through the final turn then moved inside to make a rail bid down the stretch but couldn't collar the winner and held on for the place. IMPERIA BLUE saved ground from the middle of the pack around the first turn then angled out to four wide down the backstretch, shifted back inside to make rail bid on the final turn, angled back out to three wide in the stretch run to give late effort and just miss the place. WHY settled close up to the pace from two wide around the first turn then made a four wide middle move down the backstretch but failed to sustain that bid. WELL SHAKEN raced in the middle of the pack down the backstretch then made a rail bid on the final turn, tipped out to three wide in the stretch run to close willingly. ZERO REMORSE raced near the back to the final turn, made a mild bid to improve position. ESTRELLA raced in the middle of the pack while moving up from three or four wide on the final turn but failed to menace. SHE'S TRIPPIN trailed the field to the final turn where she passed tiring rivals but was never a threat. LA ESPERANZA was hustled along to settle close up on the pace to midway down the backstretch then dropped back. CHABELITA stalked the pace from three wide to the final turn before stopping. MARDEL MARIEL raced in the middle of the pack from two wide down the backstretch before giving way.
