MOVENTOTHECOUNTRY was quite content tracking the pacesetter outside in the first half of the race, moved in cruised around the leader taking control at the three furlong pole, opened up getting the jump on the field on the far turn by the quarter pole, was urged on finding more through the lane in the two path and was kept to the task late to hold on narrowly for the win. HURRICANE GIZMO was tucked in on the rail just behind the frontrunner watching the lead pair, shifted out off the tiring early leader coming with a run midway on the far turn, posed the main threat in the three path in upper stretch and came with a strong late kick gaining with every stride in deep stretch inside but just could not get to the winner in time. TAKE CHANCES had a good spot on the outside in the second flight keeping a close eye on the front two early on, settled between horses still well in touch with the lead pair at the three furlong marker, was shuffled back slightly in the three path between foes at the quarter pole, angled out five wide having a lane at the top of the stretch and kept running on to the end to be a non-threatening but clear third at the finish line. SERENADING AMAYA was situated on the rail near the rear, co-trailed on the fence with a few others at the half mile marker, was scrubbed on looking for tunning room in the three path at the quarter pole commencing a rally, kept plugging away four wide outside foes down the lane and with late interest in the final eighth of a mile got up to be a fringe player in the end on the outside. RIGHT BRIGHTLY travelled all alone in midfield, began to pick up the bit when called upon inside rivals at the five sixteenths pole to be in with a chance just off the rail for a small share at the top of the stretch and finished up willingly between rivals in the late running just being nosed out for the minors at the wire. SINFUL FORESTER broke in at the start, assumed command setting a soft pace in the early going unchallenged, surrender the front when the winner cruised on by outside at the three-furlong pole and was under a vigorous ride trying to hold on the fence for the runners up share down the stretch but yielded inside horses in the final furlong. ALL FOR HONOR was away slowly trailing the field on the fence, made a premature move advancing quickly outside rivals four deep from last down the backside, came under a ride trying to continue on with the swooping rally three wide outside horses through the turn, could not sustain the lengthy run and folded in the six path between foes in upper stretch. DANCING IN RIO stalked close to the back just off the fence early on, shared the rear between foes at the half, regressed in the three path through the far turn to be last by the quarter pole, angled out six wide for the drive and passed a weary foe inside in the final furlong. THATSITTHATSALL was squeezed on the break to stalk three wide ahead of only the other poor starter on the first turn, co-trailed four deep at the half, was under a drive trying to circle outside rivals four wide at the three furlong pole making little headway, shifted out widest in the eight path turning for home and had nothing more to offer by mid-stretch.
