SECRET STORM was void of early speed to see the field in the early going, moved up steadily between foes at the half to sit just behind the leaders, was smartly reined back to watch the lead trio contest the pace through the turn, began to re-engage when scrubbed on for more, four wide at the quarter pole, angled out five wide full of run in upper stretch and swept past coming to the sixteenth pole to win going away at the wire. SOUPER ICONIC pressed the pace on the inside in the beginning, took over control poking his head in front at the half, dueled inside through the bend, stubbornly edged away in the two path from the other speed foe by the furlong marker but could not find more in deep stretch to fend off the winner who had all run on the outside nearing the wire. SOL DE VERANO advanced smartly on the fence along the backside, was nudged on the rail going into the turn trying to maintain inside position, had to tap on the brakes, being shuffled back in midturn, sat just behind the contesting lead trio turning for home and finished with a final late surge to close in to capture the show award. CAUGHT SPEEDING was away alertly for the early lead, tracked the pacesetter between foes with a half mile remaining, moved in to vie between rivals for the front at the three eighths pole, battled outside through the turn, was in the hunt with runners on each side while in the three path throwing in down in the stretch, could not continue on with the lead duo late and faded in the final sixteenth to settle on the fringes. COUNTRY LIVING travelled five deep in midfield down the backside, made a brief move getting better outside position into the turn, tried to go with the lead two while three wide at the three-furlong marker, had little left when retreating in the four path with a quarter mile to run and emptied out five wide outside rivals down the lane. OK SPEEDY could see the tight packed group at mid-backstretch, made little headway travelling three wide around the bend, shifted in to the two path for the stretch run but could not get involved.
