JAPONKA settled inside another rival in the third flight early on, was roused midway on the turn saving ground starting to make a move, angled out three wide leaving the quarter pole gathering more momentum, shifted to the five pat in with a chance at the top of the lane, stayed on the incorrect lead nevertheless kept coming on outside foes through the stretch and won going away in the final seventy yards. I THINK I CAN (IRE) broke out on the start, got to the rail down the backstretch sitting close to the back end, edged up taking the shortest way around the turn, shifted out three wide but had to be throttled down behind runners at the quarter pole, angled to the four path for the drive, lost its path briefly at the furlong pole and with clear run late charged home in deep stretch to win the photo outside for the place share. C C ATHENA was allowed to settle into stride seeing the field, save ground on the turn making little gain, scraped the paint coming with a good move turning for home, burst between runners in the two path at the furlong marker, drifted inwards under right handed encouragement by the sixteenth pole and had one final surge in deep stretch, just missing the nod for the runners up share inside at the finish line. WUNHAPPY WABBIT had a stalking role close to the back of the pack, improved smartly under a hold between foes at the seven sixteenths pole, made a big three wide swooping move around the bend to open up on the field at the top of the stretch, did not switch leads to the wire and was caught by runners when stalling in the final seventy yards. DIXIE DOLL veered in on the break, became headstrong rushing up leaving the chute having to be checked briefly entering the backstretch, was shuffled back a few positions at the half, made no progression two wide through the turn and finished up with good late energy in the five path outside horses in deep stretch. LORRAINE'S BEAUTY was under a snug hold watching the pacesetter down the backstretch, inched up inside rivals midway on the turn, shifted out off the tiring early leader three wide at the quarter pole, stayed on the incorrect lead in the mix three wide in mid-stretch, could not find more late and faded in deep stretch. GOLDEN GOOSE was pushed out by the inside runner on the break, stalked three deep outside foes near the rear down the back straight, took the overland route four wide making little headway around the turn and could only manage to pass tired runners in the six path down the lane. CLEAR POSITION travelled outside another in the third tier down the back straight, was nudged on three wide on the turn making little movement, angled to the six path for the drive to the wire but failed to fire in the final furlong. MYHUSBANDSAGENIUS was loose up top leaving the chute, continued to roll along unchallenged at the half, had a shrinking advantage midway on the turn, offered no resistance surrendering the lead by the quarter pole, began to shorten stride on the fence in upper stretch tiring to hold for a small share, had to be steadied in tight on the rail coming to sixteenth pole and tired in deep stretch. SOCIALLY INTACT tracked the pacesetter on the outside early on, could not keep up on the turn regressing between horses at the five sixteenths marker, had to be checked losing its path three wide leaving the quarter pole and emptied out in the five path at the top of the stretch. RIDERS CLAIM OF FOUL #6 MYHUSBANDISAGENIUS AGAINST #8 C C ATHENA NEARING THE SIXTEENTH POLE WAS DISALLOWED
