LET US MAKE GOLD saved ground off the pace, bid nearing the three eighths pole and contested at a close disadvantage nearest the rail on the far turn, took the nod into the stretch and dug in determinedly under steady handling to hold on. INDIANA RED stalked from the three and four paths then challenged nearing the three eighths pole, contested at a close disadvantage four wide on the far turn, dug in for second mid-stretch but was outfinished the final sixteenth. PERTH AMBOY stalked off the rail then challenged at the three eighths pole and dueled at even terms in the three path of the far turn, lugged in under right hand encouragement mid-stretch, had his heels clipped by Strong Safety at that point then flattened the final sixteenth. GRECIAN ADMIRAL became a bit anxious in the gate then settled off the pace about the three path the first turn, started a bid toward the three eighths pole, rounded the far turn off the rail, swung out to avoid a fallen rival mid-stretch and was not asked further. INJECT THE LIGHT settled off the pace about the three path the first turn, picked up the chase leaving the seven sixteenths pole, continued in the three path of the far turn and showed little further. HENRY STANDINGBEAR saved ground well off the pace the first turn, ran outside into the backstretch, gave chase leaving the seven sixteenths pole, ran at the rail on the far turn and showed little further. STRONG SAFETY moved to the inside to rate the pace, came under pressure at the three eighths pole and contested the edge nearest the rail most of the far turn, was met nearing the top of the lane, was shut off and clipped the heels of Perth Amboy mid-stretch, fell at that point but got up and walked off. A Stewards inquiry resulted in the disqualification of Perth Amboy to sixth place for lugging across the path of Strong Safety, causing the latter to clip heels and fall mid-stretch.
