MOTION GRANTED was bumped at the break but among the early leaders heading to the first turn then moved clear and shifted in to about the two path at the three-quarters early on that bend, set the pace up the backstretch, was challenged late on the far turn with the outside foe drawing even, met that one's challenge and held the lead before edging clear again late. CONNOR switched out off the inside entering the first turn, stalked three wide, took closer order on the far turn drawing even past the quarter pole three wide, loomed a threat at the three-sixteenths but was fended off and just saved place. BIG SHOOTER settled outside toward the rear, fanned eight wide turning for home, was gaining quickly but too late. BARONS BLITZ bobbled slightly and bumped with a rival at the start, shifted in to the rail heading to the first turn, saved some ground, swung out five wide turning for home, was gaining late between runners but needed more. TRUE SHOT settled toward the back, saved ground inside on both turns, came out off the rail in the stretch and kept on. HANLAN tracked the eventual winner from inside, weakened in the stretch. ARYEH was brushed at the start, caught wide into the first turn, continued about mid-pack off the rail, was urged along past the five-sixteenths, floated six wide turning for home, failed to rally. EROS was hard to load, broke inwardly and steadied slightly, was encouraged along up the backstretch but had no response. FAST FRIENDS broke outwardly, raced outside off the leaders, failed to menace. HELLO LADIES was fractious in the gate, lost an iron at the start and brushed with a rival while getting away awkwardly, had no response.
