KIKITSA seized command at the start angling in to get to the rail up top by the half, was well in hand comfortably up front while shadowed outside through the turn, was finally let loose spurting away from challengers at the top of the stretch and was kept to the task to the wire to hold safe for the frontrunning score at the finish line. CYMBAL COURT settled between runners in midfield at the half, travelled in the second flight with runners on either side watching the front pair midway around the turn, angled out four wide finding her best stride down the lane, could not get to the winner in the final furlong but did close in belatedly to win the secondary battle outside with seventy yards to go. REALLY THIRSTY had a tracking role on the outside in the early going, took closer order to hound the pacesetter outside around the bend, was still in the thick of things three wide straightening out for home but faded inside foes in the last sixteenth to hold for the show money in the end. PRIMA broke out on the start, bounced off the rail when angling in soon after the break, then was steadied sharply in tight with the field shifting in after the first sixteenth of a mile, lagged well behind at the half after the incident down the backside, started to close the gap on runners when nudged for more midway on the turn and had some late energy in the final furlong to get up for a minor role at the wire. WORLD SHOWCASE was one of a few who were checked in tight quarters at the nine sixteenths pole soon after the break, travelled three deep on the outside near the rear at the half, tried to circle around horses moving three wide on the turn, angled out to the four path but had little left for the stretch running outside runners at the top of the lane. SHOOTIN' AMY was in tight with the field crowding together at the nine sixteenths pole, recovered to nestle behind the pacesetter going into the turn, took the short way around following the leader through the turn, shifted just out in the two path having a chance for a piece of the prize in upper stretch, yielded on the fence with a furlong from home and shortened stride considerably when cantering across the finish line. STEWARDS GENERAL INQUIRY DOWN THE BACKSTRETCH AT THE NINE SIXTEENTHS POLE RESULTED IN NO CHANGE
