FLYING BLACK broke a step slow on the start, was allowed to settle into stride seeing the field in the early parts of the race, cruised around a rival getting into gear three wide at the quarter pole, shifted to the four path at the top of the stretch, switched leads finding more to surge between horses taking control at he sixteenth pole and was kept to the task late to fend off a stubborn outside foe who would not give in until the very end. SPEEDY FREEZE had a slow start on the break, stalked ahead of only the other poor starter in the early stages, made a quick move mounting a rally at the three furlong pole to circle rivals four wide on the last bend, had all the momentum outside five wide turning for home, could not match strides with the winner inside at the sixteenth pole, did try to come on again late at the wire but settled for the runners up share at the finish line. KITTEN'S ROMANCE prompted the issue outside in the first turn, tracked the new leader making an early bid at the half, was forced to move in the two path between horses at the three eighths marker, duelled with rivals on both sides on the last turn, moved clear in front two wide in mid-stretch, had no answer though when the top pair drove past at the sixteenth pole outside but did find a little bit more late to save for the show money at the wire. ZISISIT (IRE) was nestled on the rail in a good spot sitting just behind the pacesetter on the initial bend, continued the short way around on the rail in midfield along the backside, waited between foes watching the contesting trio up front around the final turn, had a clear path three wide briefly in upper stretch, was then stymied unable to make a rally behind the tiring leader at the furlong marker, finally got a seam on the fence with seventy yards remaining but could not get the show award under only mild urging in deep stretch. VOICE FROM ABOVE traveled three wide in mid-pack, moved in three wide angling in at the three furlong pole going for the lead outside horses, battled outside up top throughout the far turn but had little in reserve for the stretch run and faded between foes the last sixteenth of a mile. DESTINY RO travelled five wide on the first of two turns circling around runners, seized control continuing the run midway down the backstretch, was headed outside by two rivals at the three eighths pole, dueled inside trying to hold inside position on the last bend and gave way on the fence in the final furlong. KATHERINE'S GEM had the lead on the rail in the first turn, relinquished the front midway along the backstretch, was shuffled back in tight conceding the fence at the three-furlong pole, saved ground through the turn but was near the rear at the top of the stretch, lacked running room on the rail at the furlong pole, shifted outside but had no finish to give.
