VERY SAVVY was allowed to settle into stride trailing the field leaving the chute and through the backside, closed the gap smartly commencing a rally at the quarter pole, swung out widest gathering more speed five wide having clear run at the top of the stretch, was in full flight charging in at the furlong marker and powered past for the win in the final sixteenth. HOLIDAY WITH AMY watched the pacesetter while between foes down the backside, started to pick up the bit when asked for more run two furlongs out, angled to the three path coming closer to the leader in upper stretch, had to shift inwards when losing her path for a moment with the then leader drifting out at the sixteenth pole and surged late to get up inside horses for the secondary share at the finish line. SOUPER SUNDAY sat off the frontrunner outside down the backstretch, started to reel in the leader at the five sixteenths pole, pounced three wide in upper stretch seizing control, did not switch leads through the lane, drifted out under left-handed encouragement trying to hold off runners on either side with a sixteenth still remaining and faded in deep stretch to last for the show money at the wire. HARD TO CAPTURE travelled three deep outside runners with a half mile to go, moved in three wide at the three eighths marker, kept pace while still outside the lead duo at the quarter pole to be in the mix four wide straightening out for home and evened out in the late running to settle for a minor share in the end. KATHERINE'S GEM settled in mid-division while on the rail, was under a busy ride midway around the turn saving ground but was making little headway, had the two path behind the contesting duo at the head of the lane, could not find more for the stretch run and yielded in the final furlong. LINDA'S OPAL assumed command heading into the backstretch, opened up slightly at the half mile marker, had a shrinking advantage by midturn, was collared outside while in the two path turning for home, had little to give in the stretch drive and folded inside horses at the furlong pole.
