RICH MOUNTAIN veered in and came very close to the rail after the start but secured the early lead then picked up two pursuers at the half, held both at bay through the turn then got away under steady handling and managed to hold off a pair of fast closing rivals on the outside. FANDO broke well but was not fast enough to contest the early lead, dropped to last going into the turn and chased the field under a drive swing six or seven wide into the stretch and finished with a rush in the middle of the track to get up for second. SUMMER HELP got squeezed at the start, advanced down the backstretch then sustained the bid through the turn and into the stretch, was making steady gains under left handed urging and gained third in a blanket finish for the minor awards. TAKE MY MONEY was in the middle of the pack down the backstretch then came under a stiff drive leaving the three furlong pole, produced a steady, grinding finish, gained second in deep stretch but came up short in blanket finish for the runner-up spot. PRETTY MACHO lacked speed and was three to four wide down the backstretch, launched a slow, steady grinding bid through the turn then closed into the crowd contesting the place but came up short. TOO INTIMIDATING chased the trio in the front of the pack broke away from the tracking group heading into the turn and flattened out in the final furlong. NATURAL HIGH broke in a bit at the start and made light contact with SUMMER HELP, made a bid for the lead leaving the quarter pole but could not get to the eventual winner, flattened out in mid-stretch and had nothing to offer late. GOING TO SANANTONE broke out at the start and mutually bumped with SUMMER HELP, then stalked the pace between horses, made an early bid, weakened on the turn and faded down the stretch.
