HOPE SHE FIRES broke out on the start, settled in the second flight with runners on either side in the early going, began to lengthen stride two wide on the turn passing an outside foe at the quarter pole, shifted to the four path in the hunt straight ending out for home, closed in by the furlong pole and drove past seizing control by the sixteenth pole holding on comfortably for the win. I LOVE PRESENTS had a stalking trip ahead of only the troubled starters down the backstretch, kept pace around the turn, angled to the five path commencing a run in with a chance at the head of the lane, finished up strongly but could not get to the winner while clearly second best at the finish line. SYMPATICO travelled three deep outside a couple of rivals keeping a close eye on the pacesetter midway along the backstretch, offered a sharp move circling horses three to four wide throughout the oval, had a head in front by mid-stretch between foes, could not sustain the rally in deep stretch unable to fend off the front pair late and just lasted at the finish line for the show money. KEEPING THE VOW had a good spot nestled on the rail watching the engaged front duo, kept a close eye on the frontrunner travelling in the rail at the half, shifted out two wide in midturn coming with a run, dueled between rivals up top in upper stretch but evened out inside foes in the final eighth of a mile losing the tight photo for third at the wire. SHOOT had a head in front initially, relinquished the lead tracking the new leader outside with a half mile still to run, could not quicken when passed on Botha sides two wide at the quarter pole and could only manage to pass the tired early frontrunner who ran out of gas in the final furlong. CALL ME MISSLUCKY prompted the early pace on the inside, shook clear on the front end by the half, set a brisk pace in control on the turn, was collared outside offering no resistance when turning for home and emptied out on the rail, wilting by the furlong pole. FULLY COMPLETELY had all sorts of problems on the break, was restless in the stall prior to the start, then broke slowly followed up by being bumped by the inside foe to co-trail the field inside another down the early ba stretch, made little impact ahead of only the other troubled starter around the bend, skimmed the fence turning for home but had no finish to offer down the lane inside of horses. DON'T SAY A WORD broke inwards then was jostled around between horses at the start sharing the rear outside in the beginning, lagged well behind throughout the turn, shifted to the three path for the stretch drive but could no factor in the late running.
