TOUCH OF FIRE tugged off of the pace along the inside into and around the first turn, roused between rivals nearing the lane, shifted out to six to seven path leaving upper stretch then rallied to reel in the leaders in time. MENDELS MATE tracked along the inside, slipped through to bid inside of the leader in upper stretch, gained an advantage entering the final furlong but got caught late. CHAMBERSVILLE broke a step slow, trailed in the two path before shifting out to the five path entering the backstretch, issued an early advance five wide at the half mile pole, progressed to prompt four wide around the far turn, got floated back to the five path entering the lane, kept on to vie for place into the final sixteenth but got outkicked. ZEUS'S ECHO showed the way along the inside, felt pressure from a trio of outer prompters around the far turn, drifted to the three path entering the lane, got collared by an inner bidder in upper stretch, headed by that one at the furlong grounds then yielded place to an outer pair in the final sixteenth. THIRD COAST stalked in the two path, prompted among foes around the far turn but failed to sustain pressure entering the lane and chased thereafter. DOCTRINE stalked in the three path, prompted between rivals around the far turn, failed to maintain pressure entering upper stretch and yielded. J J GREY tracked two wide and between horses, got briefly keen entering the backstretch, chased while moving out to the five path in the final furlong and lacked a bid. MISCHIEF RIDE settled off of the pace while hung in the five to four path, got floated out to the eight path leaving upper stretch then failed to menace. TIME FOR MONEY broke a step slow and brushed with an outer rival at the start, lacked speed near the inside, then saved ground to no avail. TACTICALITY brushed with an inner rival at the start, laid off of the pace in the two path, pulled once keen between horses entering the backstretch, took the far turn in the four path and failed to factor. HAYES GOAL tracked in the four to three path then faded between horses. KHETAM raced off of the pace in the three path and between horses, retreated to race at the rear into the far turn then got outrun.
