SIPPING HISTORY was forwarded placed outside keeping a close eye on the front twosome down the backstretch, started to come with a rallythree wide with a quarter mile from home, shifted out to the four oath coming on at the top of the lane and determinedly wore down a stubbornly frontrunner inside just before the wire for the hard earned victory. RULE THE WAVES bobbled a touch on the break, quickly recouped on the fence to be on the engine by the half, zoomed along with no challengers opening up on the turn setting a rapid pace in the process, kept finding more on the rail mid-stretch holding onto the lead but could not fend off the relentless pursuit by the winner outside in the final furlong just getting nabbed in the shadow of the wire for the win. EPISODE had runners on either side while in mid-division along the backside, was roused trying just to keep up on the turn, started to get into gear two wide by mid-stretch, moved to the three path off a tiring rival at the sixteenth pole and with a solid late run got up for third but could not threaten the front pair at the finish line. VEGAS ROAD was fleet footed between horses having the lead in the beginning, let the inside rival go on with it surrendering the front end by the half, gave futile chase on the frontrunner under a brisk tempo around the bend, had the two path in with a chance for a share in upper stretch but stalled with a furlong remaining, lost a couple of positions late and settled on the fringes in the end. ARTFUL DIAMOND had the rail position in midfield midway down the back straightaway, ran on evenly keeping pace around the oval, continued the inside trip shaving the corner in upper stretch but lacked a finishing kick inside others in the last furlong. DEFINITE DIVA had no early speed lagging behind the pack down the backside, saved ground while still well behind runner s throughout the turn, started to pick up the bit lengthening her stride in upper stretch, moved out widest getting a clear lane at the furlong pole and closed in quickly in the final eighth of a mile but could not factor outside of foes at the wire. ROSE FORTUNE travelled in the middle of the pack three deep outside of rivals, continued to overland route making little headway while going three to four wide around the bend, shifted to the five path at the top of the lane but had no rally to offer in the stretch running.
