JUST A GEM assumed command setting a pokey pace on the first turn, continued loose on the lead rationing out the speed or lack thereof down the backside, still remained up top narrowly on the rail through the far turn, shifted out two wide clinging to the lead with a couple of challengers bearing down in upper stretch, kept finding more down the lane, drifted out late under left handed encouragement but tenaciously prevailed at the finish line. ENGLISH JUBILEE was content to sit just off the leader in the early going, hounded the pace outside down the back straight, moved in to vie between horses on the far turn, battled determinedly with horses on either side through the stretch never wavering, was in tight driving in deep stretch but was denied in a photo at the wire. POETIC AMY travelled three wide watching the leader in the first turn, continued to be three deep measuring the frontrunner outside down the backside, moved in to duel three wide outside throughout the last turn, shifted to the four path in the thick of things up top entering the stretch but needed more late when losing the three way photo for the win. DESIGN DIVA travelled on the fence at the back of the pack, lagged behind the group down the backstretch, could not really make any headway on the last turn, shifted three wide at the top of the stretch starting to get into gear late and closed in smartly in the final furlong but switched back to the incorrect lead just before the wire to be a fringe player in the end. NIKITA'S GEM stalked on the rail in the early stages, made little movement between foes along the backside, was part of the second flight trio still between runners on the last turn, shifted out four wide in upper stretch but could only finish up one paced in the late going. MAXINE MAGIC was tucked in on the fence behind the pacesetter on the first turn, settled into a good rhythm on the rail in midfield along the backside, waited to move while inside runners watching the engaged threesome through the far turn, skimmed the fence to have a clear path in with a chance at the top of the lane but failed to fire in the late stages. HOLIDAY ROSE settled near the rear on the outside in the beginning, made no progression three deep on the outside along the backstretch, offered a mild run when urged for more three wide from the three eighths pole under the quarter marker outside rivals, angled out in the five-path turning for home but came up empty in the stretch running.
