MEGASTAR behind the pace off the inside, in some traffic into the turn, again late in the bend, got through, challenged past the furlong marker between horses, dueled to the wire, dug in late to narrowly prevail in game fashion. FAIRFIELD BAY off the pace and the inside, four wide through the turn, crept closer turning for home, challenged outside the winner with a furlong to run, dueled to the wire, outkicked in the late going. REAL BLUES off the pace and the inside, waited late in the turn behind traffic, dropped inside, up late for the show, not a threat to the top pair. ASLEEP AT EIGHT pressed the issue four wide into the turn, vied into the lane, led between calls into the stretch, weakened the final furlong. ARJUN FOR KARZ forwardly placed while racing toward the inside, continued within striking distance along the rail entering the stretch, came up empty for the stretch run. JOEWILLY off step slow, moved outside and advanced into the turn, within striking distance while five wide through the bend, lacked a closing kick through the lane. DOUBLE BURN broke on top, narrowly set a pressured pace in the three path up the backstretch, continued to vie in the two path turn, gave way through the lane. BELIEVE IN DREAMS off slowly, trailed throughout to be always outrun.
