MAGGY'S PALACE devoid of speed and outrun early on, chased four paths off the inside detached at the tail of the field down the backstretch, tucked to the two path through the turn coming under encouragement at the three-eighths, went seven wide into upper stretch, rallied to roll on by the leader a sixteenth from home edging clear to the finish kept to task. ROSWELL stumbled at the start getting away last, chased just off the inside on hold and waited with nearing the quarter pole in behind BEST IMPRESSION, got clearance and tipped four wide into upper stretch set down for the drive, rallied into an ample seam between foes and had SAVE US MELANIA come out to look MAJESTIC RETURN in the eye and was forced to check when just latching on that pair of rivals a furlong from home losing momentum, then was in hand to the finish and but still able to secure the place honors under her own power. WILLOW BEND chased five paths off the inside down the backstretch and then three wide through the turn coaxed along from three furlongs out, swung six wide into upper stretch and improved position to procure the show honors. SAVE US MELANIA broke out at the start bumping MAJESTIC RETURN, showed the way in hand three then two wide coming under urging at the three-eighths, swung three wide for home, came out to look MAJESTIC RETURN in the eye and forced ROSWELL to check between foes, yielded the front when overhauled just inside that station and weakened in the late stages. SARIR coaxed from the gate, chased five to six paths off the inside down the backstretch and then four wide through the turn under a ride from the five-sixteenths, swung five wide into upper stretch and passed tired rivals. MAJESTIC RETURN got bumped at the start by SAVE US MELANIA, who broke outwards, raced four to five paths off the rail in closest aim of that rival down the backstretch, tucked three wide through the turn coming under motivation nearing the quarter pole, went four wide at that station, dug in prominent to the eighth pole threatening for command, then weakened in the late going. PROUD FOOT got brushed at the start by MAJESTIC RETURN due to pressure from SAVE US MELANIA, chased three wide until tucked inside into the turn, came under urging near the quarter pole and spun just off the inside into upper stretch, tired. BEST IMPRESSION coaxed from the start, chased four then two wide under a ride from the five-sixteenths, spun three wide for home, tired in the stretch.
