SPRINGER had a nice set up forwardly placed on the outside settling into a good rhythm three deep down the backside, inched up three wide through the bend just waiting for the cue to go by the rider, cruised around the embattled pair five wide seizing control in upper stretch and was kept to the task in the final furlong to win quite comfortably when crossing the finish line. PINE KNOLL dueled on the rail up top down the backside, continued to press the issue inside another arguing on the front end around the oval, shifted to the three path relinquishing the lead to the winner at the top of the stretch, could not counter with the winner opening up at the furlong pole but still stayed on in the late stages well ahead of the rest coming home a clear second best. COOLER MAN had the outside position close to the back end, made little impact travelling three wide around the bend, angled to the four path taking closer order straightening out for the drive and found his best stride late winning the mad finish between and against six others for the show award. CATHOLIC JACKIE sat all alone in front of only a few runners in the early stages, regressed slightly two wide between horses on the turn by the quarter pole, shifted to the five path reaching for more ground at the head of the lane and was full of run outside foes in the seven path in the final furlong getting up at the wire sharing a minor award. GLINTINDADDYSEYE lunged at the start, was coaxed along improving down the backside tracking the lead three runners on the rail in tandem with an outside foe by the half mile marker, was roused on the fence in midturn edging closer to the front trio by the quarter pole, shaved the corner in the mix in upper stretch and finished up willingly between rivals in a mad scramble coming to the wire lasted at the finish line to be a co-fringe player in the end. AWE INSPIRED had the rail position ahead of only one rival in the backstretch running, saved ground throughout the turn but making little movement, skimmed the fence in upper stretch and ran on mildly but could not get into contention in the drive to the finish line. YOU AND ME BABY settled outside another rival stalking the front trio with a half mile remaining, was ridden on for more but could not keep up to the lead quartet at the five sixteenths pole, drifted out widest in the six path turning for home and tired in the final furlong. BENNYS JETS was hustled battling outside for the early lead down the backside, continued outside throwing it down going eye to eye up front around the oval, shifted to the four path still in the thick of things between horses taking the corner, could not keep going with the top pair by the furlong marker and fielded in deep stretch. HAPPY QUAD broke with the field but lacked early foot trailing between runners midway along the backstretch, travelled just off the fence seeing the field through the turn and in the two path could not getting involved in the stretch running.
