AETHELFLAED (IRE) was quickest out of the gate for the early advantage leaving the chute, dictated terms unchallenged along the backside, rambled along in hand setting a brisk tempo around the turn, switched leads in an instant just off the fence straightening out for the drive and was kept to the task late to safely hold for the gate to wire score with an impressive debut. PRIME EDGE stalked ahead of one runner three deep at the half, travelled three wide around horses making steady gain through the turn, shifted out four wide at the top of the lane, closed in smartly outside horses while never switching leads in the drive and got up for the place share in the last couple of jumps before the wire. TRIP ACES settled in the third flight having runners on each side early on, had little movement around the bend, angled to the three path in tight with the inside foe in at the top of the lane, found his best stride late at the furlong marker having a clear run and charged home in deep stretch just losing the nod for the runners up share inside at the finish line. KAMASI kept tabs on the frontrunner outside another down the backside, took closer order moving three wide on the turn to bid for the lead briefly at the quarter pole, chased the winner in vain in the three path down the stretch and faded inside rivals in the final seventy yards losing a couple of placings late. PARADISE PERFECT was under a snug hold having the rail in mid-pack, kept pace with runners while taking the short way around the oval when under encouragement, had to be throttled down for a few strides when behind a tiring rival coming to the quarter pole, moved out to the two path in upper stretch, dueled between horses for the show money with a sixteenth still to run but was outkicked in the late going. CHASING MEMORIES was under a tight rein tracking behind the frontrunner along the back straight, came under a ride but was being passed by an outside rival in midturn, was urged for more on the rail turning for home, had little to offer in the drive to the wire and yielded inside foes at the sixteenth pole. ACCELERANDO veered on the break, sat in midfield four deep into the backstretch, was relegated to last getting to the fence by the half, travelled two to three wide around the turn making little gain on runners and could not offer a finish in the late running in the three path.
