LOVE THE PRESSURE sprinted clear and took control of the rail, opened up a comfortable lead, continued untested through the far turn, roused at the top of the lane and remained clear under some right handed urging and steady handling. ORACLE OF PARADISE broke a bit slow, settled inside off the pace, crept closer in the middle stages, chased two then three wide around the far turn, bumped in upper and finished well but had to settle for second best. DOING TIME tracked out of range on the inside, moved into range leaving the backstretch, cut the corner into the lane but could not summon the needed late kick. MO HOLLAND DRIVE was off slow to begin, settled in the two path, angled in then back out on the far turn, spun three wide into the lane and failed to rally. BANDOLERO was off slow from the far outside, steered to the fence racing off the pace, angled three wide into the lane and failed to threaten. SAGUNTO away quickly then ceded command and tracked a bit off the rail, drew closer two wide in the middle stages, continued two wide on the far turn and weakened in the drive. BENNY AND THE JET was off slow in the beginning, raced along the inside near the back, went outside a rival on the far turn, cut back inside at the quarter pole and could not make an impact. UNION SECRETS broke slow, trailed along the inside and never got involved. SMOKEM AND LOVE tracked in the two path around the first turn, lost ground two to three wide on the second bend and faded in the drive. This race had a timing discrepancy or malfunction and was re-timed using video technology to arrive at the most accurate time.
