TRADE DEADLINE broke sharply, sped to the lead while angling to the rail racing to the first turn, dictated the pace on a narrow margin to the backstretch, edged clear after a half, then held sway through the far turn to the end under firm right handed encouragement. DEVIL VISION, bumped while caught in tight quarters at the start, was urged between foes to gain terms with the leaders racing into the first turn, was eased back entering the backstretch to track just off those foes outside a rival racing to the far turn, was urged to advance splitting rivals just off the inside racing into upper stretch and wrested second in late stages. LAST MINISTER was urged to a forward placing while caught three deep racing into the first turn, shifted inwards racing to the backstretch to track just outside the pacesetter, was prompted to close the gap on that rival racing into upper stretch but weakened losing second in the closing stages. MISCHIEVOUS MO, caught in close quarters, then held up avoiding traffic racing into the first turn, was rated off the second flight along the inside on the backstretch, switched out racing into upper stretch and continued with interest to regain some position. KIERKEGAARD broke out bumping DEVIL VISION, was righted quickly to track just off the pacesetter along the rail racing to the backstretch, saved ground through the far turn and faded into upper stretch. STONE SECRET, caught a bit wide dropping out last racing to the first turn, continued three, then four wide to the lane and proved no threat. MY DOMINATOR dropped back early.
