GIVE ME THE BOOTS was unopposed on the rail up top down the backside, freewheeled loose up top on the turn setting an even pace, had a clear advantage straightening out for home on the fence, began to get leg weary while kept to the task at the furlong pole, had a wall of runners closing in sharply but dug in late to just hold on at the wire for the frontrunning tally. PURR FACTOR let the lone speed foe go on with it down the backside, was roused midturn making little gain on the leader, started to whittle away on the pacesetters lead three wide in mid-stretch, was coming on strongly just outside in the late running but just missed getting to the winner at the wire. I'M INTO MISCHIEF was reluctant to load at the start, stalked close to the rear outside horses early on, made little progression outside foes on the oval, shifted four wide for the stretch drive, rallied between rivals having clear run at the furlong marker and with a good late charge caught a fading runner late for the third place share all the while not beaten that much for all the money. GARNET AND GOLD sat alone in midfield watching the lead three along the backside, had a good turn of foot when scrubbed on for more midway on the bend, was coming on five wide at the top of the lane, drifted out under left-handed encouragement fighting for a minor share late and was just caught by the outside foe for the show award. VERDEJO was allowed to settle at the back of the pack seeing the field, lagged well behind getting into gear around the turn, swung out widest in the six path gathering speed for the stretch run, found her customary best stride late, closed the gap smartly on the front pair but could not get to the leaders in time at the finish line. EMPTY GESTURE had an inside spot near the back in the early stages, made little gain inside another through the bend, angled three wide turning for home, shifted out further in the four path with a furlong from home finding a seam, had to be checked at the seventy-yard marker losing her path and could not factor afterwards. YA MAR tracked the frontrunner on the inside along the backside, could not match strides with the outside rivals making a rally at the quarter pole and yielded on the fence with a furlong remaining.
