GIO LINH broke outwardly and firmly bumped an outer rival at the start, stalked four to three wide into the backstretch, bid three deep rounding the far turn, battled with the early leader entering the lane, took charge at the furlong grounds and drew off. LADY FAYE laid close up along the inside before stalking around the first turn, bided time behind rivals rounding the far turn, continued to encounter traffic behind the leaders entering the lane, tipped out to the four path at the furlong grounds and ran on to be second best. NANCY MAK was bumped between horses at the start, trailed along the inside, improved in the four path into the far turn, fanned to the six path into the lane an ran on while hanging on her left lead to reach show at the sixteenth pole. SUSSUDIO broke a beat slow, steadied while keen passing the seven furlong pole, settled off of the pace in the four to five path, chased in the three path around the far turn, shifted inwardly leaving upper stretch then moved up between horses late. CROWN OF VIOLENCE bumped with an inner foe leaving the gate, pursued from midpack four wide, crept closer into the far turn but flattened out in midstretch. TACTICAL COMMAND set the pace along the inside, met a pair of outer challenges around the far turn, dug into spar through upper stretch but proved no match for the eventual winner at the furlong grounds then faded. BOWLING BLUE checked between horses entering the first turn, pursued two wide and between rivals, chased under urging around the far turn then gave way. FROSTY FOR EVER pulled between rivals into the first turn, prompted outside of the leader around that bend, stalked between rivals before offering a bid around the far turn, but failed to keep pace entering the lane then faded. VICTURA was prominent early on before tracking three to two wide and between rivals into the backstretch, but faded into the far turn. RED HOT LUCK lacked speed along the inside then was through early.
