P. S. RISING STAR improved inside of horses throughout the initial turn to have the rail sitting in mid-pack down the backstretch, travelled in the two path keeping pace with the lead duo around the second bend, loomed a menacing presence five wide at the top of the lane and grinded past on the outside in the final sixteenth for the win. CANDID CANDACE was isolated watching the loose leader around the first turn and through the backside, started to creep closer in the three path with a quarter mile from home, poked her head in front briefly with runners on each side at the furlong marker, could not fend off the winner in the final sixteenth but did dig in late to save for the place share inside at the wire. THAT GIRL ARTEMUS was brushed outside on the break, stalked just off the fence inside foes close to the back, had little progression inside challengers down the backside, saved ground narrowing the margin on the last bend, hugged the rail in the mix turning for home, shifted out off the lead trio five wide having clear run at the furlong pole and finished up with good late energy to get up for the show award outside. SARATOGA EMPRESS (GB) travelled three wide near the rear on the first turn outside foes, made little headway along the backside, was scrubbed for more picking up the bit three wide between horses at the quarter pole, shifted to the five path for the stretch drive and finished up willingly having runners on either side just losing the three way duel for the place share. MORAL TURPITUDE was hustled from the outside post to set the pace up top getting to the fence around the first bend, was unchallenged going at an even tempo down the back straight, held a slim advantage clinging up front having the fence on the far turn, offered no resistance when rivals swept past at the eighth and yielded to others in the later stages. LAUGHING OUT LOUD was forced out five wide into the first turn seeing the field, remained at the rear three deep on the outside at the half, could not gain on rivals while going four wide on the last turn and had no finish to give in the stretch running. EMERALD LAKE tossed its head having to be taken up briefly at the start, recovered to track on the fence in the beginning still fighting the rider on the first turn, settled down on the outside to sit in midfield down the backside, was under a ride in the three path trying to just maintain position around the far turn and tired in upper stretch.
