EXCITE prompted outside of the leader and from the three path, vied down the backstretch, forged an advantage while well in hand with three furlongs to go, kicked away when let out entering the lane and was kept to task through the final furlong. KAVANAUGH was void of early speed along the inside, came under a drive while chasing in the three path around the far turn, shifted out to the five path into upper stretch and sustained stride to edge place at the wire. BOURBON SOCIETY set the pace inside of a prompting EXCITE, vied with that one down the backstretch, got headed at the three furlong pole, proved no match entering the lane, gave way and lost place at the wire. START MO UP stalked along the inside, took hold and checked when running up on the the leading pair's heels around the first turn, chased along with an outer rival around the far turn, brushed that one while moving out to the three path entering upper stretch, sustained pursuit to vie for place between rivals through the final furlong but missed in the photo at the wire. CHACHACHING settled near the rear two wide and between horses, crept closer in the three path approaching the far turn, chased the top pair turning for home, got brushed by an inner rival and floated to the four path in upper stretch, stayed on to vie for place between horses into the final sixteenth but yielded late. SPECIAL AWAKENING lacked speed three wide, got outrun around the far turn and eased through the lane.
