Chart notes
LION'S GOLDENHEART stalked the early leader, up to press on the backside taken back and re-bid on the far turn, had a clear advantage into the stretch and held on, his margin of victory diminishing rapidly late. BIRCHMOUNT RD ducked out soon after the start and trailed the field, stayed inside until swinging out into the six path turning for home and closing widest while laying in down the lane, up for place and gaining quickly on the winner late. KOSMONAVT off the pace and three to two wide around the first turn, came three to five wide circling foes on the far turn and out in the five path turning for home, closing well but not matching the energy of the place finisher, but besting the rest to that one's inside. SWEEPIN HARD off slowly, rush up to three wide press into the first turn, dropped back to chase outside two rivals, moved up four wide at the quarter pole and out in the five path turning for home, unable to match the energy of the place and show closers but outrunning the remainder for a minor award. ENGLISH CLASSIC two wide chasing on the first turn, between rivals in behind the leaders on the far turn, in range down lane but outkicked in the final sixteenth. AMMUNITION off the pace, asked for run two to three wide on the far turn and had open space in front of him in the two path in midstretch but could not muster a rally. HIGHLAND SOCIETY led early, was stalked and pressed by the winner and succumbed to that one's pressure midway on the far turn, retreating down the stretch. HELL BENT chased along the inside, was hard ridden at the quarter pole but had no response. Copyright 2026 Equibase Company LLC. All Rights Reserved.
