COUNTING STARS settled tracking the leader along the inside from the pocket patiently handled until the rest of the field got busy near the five-sixteenths and got placed to encouragement just after, angled out seven wide into upper stretch, rallied to take command nearing the eighth pole, then came inwards when clear of the runner up and edged away to the finish to score. ALWAYS A RUNNER raced three wide into the first turn before tucking to the two path midway just before receiving a bump by PROM QUEEN to her inside, chased two then three paths off the inside down the backstretch before heading back to the two path through the far turn, came under coaxing with five-sixteenths to go, angled five wide into upper stretch with dead aim on the leader, seized command just inside the three-sixteenths already under threat to the outside, got collared just outside the eighth pole, dug in under a drive keeping on clear of the rest for the place honors. MEANING raced just off the inside through the first turn forwardly placed, advanced outside the leader to draw alongside with five and a half furlongs remaining, prompted that rival two to three wide down the backstretch, tucked to the two path through the far turn and came under urging just outside the five-sixteenths and took over command at that juncture, swung three to four wide into upper stretch under threat to the outside, dug in and was displaced from the front just inside the three-sixteenths marker, then weakened in the late stages while along the show honors. PROM QUEEN raced along the inside and was steadied into the first turn with one mile to run when MEANING took to the two path in the clear just in front, continued a bit rank inside of ALWAYS A RUNNER as that foe tucked to the two path and bumped that rival near the seven furlong marker before steadying once more with six and a half furlongs to run with ALWAYS A RUNNER still glued to her outside, tipped out to the two path when at the tail of the field near the five furlong marker and remained just off the inside through the far turn getting put to encouragement with five-sixteenths to go, angled five wide at the top of the stretch and weakened. MAXIMUM OFFER raced three then two wide into the first turn taking command and tucking to the inside before entering the backstretch, showed the way in hand and came under pressure through the presence of MEANING to her outside five and a half furlongs out, remained along the rail through the far turn coming under a ride just inside three furlongs out and relinquished command near the five-sixteenths marker, spun just off the inside into upper stretch in retreat and tired through to the finish.
