AZTECA WARRIOR took command in the two path soon after the start, showed the way into the turn while remaining just off the inside, was given a bit of a breather late in the bend, roused, held the runner up at way in the late going to prove best. TASK forwardly placed between rivals, chased the winner into the stretch, stalled a bit past the furlong marker, shaken up, slowly coming again late while outside the winner. DEVILS FORK broke out, raced in mid pack while toward the inside, advance in the two path to be closest to the top two upper stretch, moved out a bit then stalled the final furlong. CLEAR ECHO pinched at the start, lacked speed as a result, saved ground through the turn, bettered position while cutting the corner into the stretch, also finished up evenly. BOTE in some traffic late backstretch off the inside, raced three wide through the turn, went one paced through the lane. HOLUS BOLUS forwardly placed in the second flight along the inside, had little left in the stretch. CAVANAL void of early foot, dropped to the inside, saved ground through the turn, picked off some tiring rivals through the lane while not a serious threat. MAX DOT SOCKS pinched at the break then took up to be slow to begin, continued to trail for a half, also passed mostly tiring rivals. DAWN STRATEGY made little impact while racing three wide. GREY STREET four wide and with the main body into and through the turn, tired down the lane. OUTLAW RUN parked five wide into and through the bend, also faded in the drive. SPEAKING LOUD broke in to help tighten up a couple of rivals, was straightened to move up and race between horses in the second group, came four to five wide out of the turn, gave way to trail home.
