LITTLE THONIO travelled in the second flight outside down the back straight, moved in three wide circling foes on the turn to have a head in front briefly at the quarter pole, battled between runners in the three path but could not go on with the leader at the furlong marker, regained the front with the soon to be winner unseating the jockey coming up to the sixteenth pole and pulled away in deep stretch for the win. MR. PERFECT kept a close eye of the frontrunner tracking between horses in the early going, took closer order on the turn, vied between rivals up top by the five sixteenths pole, dueled inside two others having the two path in the stretch drive and evened out on the rail in the final furlong to be a clear second. TUCKERS TOWN was sandwiched between horses on the break trailing down the backstretch, still could see the field around the oval, caught up to an inside rival with a quarter mile from the prize, angled to the five-path showing good energy down the stretch, hurdled over the fallen jockey coming to the sixteenth pole, stayed on its feet and finished up closing in for the show money. JOLTED broke inwards on the start, stalked close to the back end settling on the inside, was relegated to last inside another at the quarter pole, shifted to the four path for the stretch run and finished up mildly through the lane to garner a minor placing in the end. MESSY RIDING broke out at the start, recovered to track the lone speed on the rail down the backside, was roused at the five sixteenths pole shifting off the tiring leader by the quarter marker, moved to the three path in upper stretch between foes but had no finish to offer in the drive to the wire. SCREEN SCENE was fleet footed loose up top down the backstretch, had a dwindling advantage with many challengets coming on midway through the turn, gave way being engulfed by outside runners surrendering the lead at the quarter pole and ran out of gas stopping on the fence in upper stretch. BONGINO WARRIOR broke sharply in the beginning, dropped back near the rear outside down the backstretch, started to smoothly reach for more ground coming to the lead trio three to four wide outside around the bend, loomed a menacing presence in the hunt four wide at the quarter pole, took the lead clearing away outside under right-handed urging at the furlong pole, ducked out losing its rider shortly afterwards and walked off.
