ARMADA RISING (IRE) rated kindly content sitting on the outside flank of the pacesetter along the backside, edged up well in hand two wide on the turn, seized control with little resistance from the inside leader by the quarter pole and when asked for more run in mid-stretch pulled away smartly to win comfortably when crossing the finish line. TAKE CHANCES travelled in the three path keeping a close eye on the lead duo early on, remained three wide keeping pair with the front pair around the oval, shifted out in the four path posing the only threat in upper stretch, chased the winner to no avail through the Kane while still securing the runners up share outside at the wire. ALMASTY'S LUST had the rail sitting in mid-division accompanied by two outside rivals at the half, took the short way around the bend hold position, moved out slightly two wide in tight briefly splitting runners coming with a rally, finished up willingly inching up dueling inside for the place share but settling for the show money at the finish line. SERENADING AMAYA hesitated then hopped up at the break spotting the field quite a bit in the early stages, lagged well behind still in the turn running, angled to the four oath reaching for more ground and had good late energy securing a minor placing in the end while not that far off closing in late for the place and show money as well. JAPONKA had runners on either side sitting in midpack down the backstretch, made no headway still between horses around the turn, shifted to the two path having little for the drive and only passed tired runners down the lane. SILVERDART settled three deep on the outside of two others tracking the front trio down the back straight, was under a ride continuing a three wide journey making no progression outside throughout the bend, swung out widest in the five path turning for home but failed to menace in the stretch running. CHARGETHATMOUNTAIN assumed command on the rail setting a moderate pace, dictated the pace while hounded outside early in the running around the turn, had no answer inside when the winner moved in at the quarter pole and had little left for the stretch drive folding on the fence by the furlong marker.
