CLOSING APPEAL broke in a bit but gathered well moving forward in behind the leaders to track, bided time late on the turn, had room inside at the top of the stretch, was put to urging nearing the furlong marker making a bid up the rail and taking over, drew clear and held under vigorous hand urging late. HOPE SHE FIRES was away well between runners at the fore early, continued to stalk or press from outside just off the leader, was carried five wide into upper stretch by that rival, fought on to defeat that one for the place. CALL ME MISSLUCKY was lightly brushed at the start but still soon went to the lead, set the tempo inside shadowed by a foe, drifted out a few paths leaving the turn, was no match for the winner and outfinished for second. DANISH COOKIE settled outside off the pace, shifted in a bit racing in behind the leaders into the turn three to four deep, came into upper stretch five wide then altered in once in upper stretch, ran on inside but needed more. YA NO took back and shifted in moving forward inside in an early advance, was ridden along past the three-eighths to keep up, moved out at the five-sixteenths swinging ten wide into upper stretch, was not a threat. THE SCARLET TIARA was away well and among the early leaders, continued to chase from outside going four wide on the turn and under a ride by the five-sixteenths, floated six wide into upper stretch and weakened. FLIGHTMARE broke a half-step slowly, raced well back outside early, shifted in on the turn, failed to menace. HOW NOON IS NOW broke awkwardly bumping a rival lightly in the process, brought up the rear inside, angled five wide at the top of the stretch, was not a factor.
