BLUE MONTJEU had a stalking role in the third tier on the outside, started to make a move rallying in the four path taking the overland route at the quarter pole, was in the hunt in the four path at the top of the lane and with a strong late charge when urged left handed edged away for the win in deep stretch. MUCHO MAGNIFICO travelled on the rail in mid-division along the backside, took closer order when roused midway through the last turn, angled five wide having his sights set on the leaders straightening out for the drive, closed in smartly with a sixteenth left to go but had to alter course outside when coming up to the drifting out leader at the sixteenth pole and determinedly fought on to get up for the place share at the wire. SO CALLED VACATION tracked the pacesetter outside in the first of two turns, moved in to prompt the issue outside down the backstretch, dueled outside through the last turn, seized command poking his head in front at the eighth pole, proceeded to drift out under left handed encouragement in the final sixteenth and lost the place share at the wire. VINI VIDI VICI stalked on the rail in the third flight in the early going, moved with the winner on the outside narrowing the margin around the far turn, had to wait stuck behind runners in the two path at the quarter pole, still lacked room in mid-stretch, darted to the fence finding a seam with a sixteenth left to run, did not have enough late when clear to threaten the winner and finished up on the fringes in the end. MIAH SAID was headstrong under a hold three wide into the first turn, watched the engaged pair down the backstretch while tracking on the outside, kept pace with the leaders around last turn to be in range in the three path in upper stretch but could not pose a threat late finishing up one paced in deep stretch. ANNIA CORNIFICIA F travelled on the outside in midfield along the backstretch, closed the gap while under a ride with five sixteenths remaining, swung out to the six path turning for home and finished up gradually outside gaining on some runners late. CONTRIVANCE broke in at the start, set the pace on the fence into the first turn, had company outside forcing the issue down the backside, battled inside neck and neck for the lead through the far turn, had little left for the drive late and was engulfed by runners on both sides in deep stretch. BLONDINA'S BOY settled in the two path ahead of a couple of runners into the initial bend, made no movement along the backside, saved ground throughout the last turn and shifted out off the rail in deep stretch to pass another rival late. ARRAKASTA IZAN made a good move from the outer post getting to the rail to track the front two midway around the first turn, settled inside down the backstretch in the second flight, kept pace travelling on the fence through the far turn, could not find more late and folded on the rail by the sixteenth pole. QUANDALE was slow into stride trailing in the beginning, passed a rival at the seven sixteenths pole outside but could not factor anymore making little presence in the stretch drive. HIGHLAND ROCKY broke with the field, quickly dropped back to be ahead of only one rival into the first turn, was passed by a runner to see the field entering the far turn and could not make any impression in the stretch running.
