READY HERO tucked in behind rivals off the leaders three to four wide into the turn, came out seven wide for room in upper stretch, struck the lead past the furlong marker and edged clear. POINT TO THE STARS shifted in tracking along the inside up close to the leaders, saved ground through the turn, drifted in and out a path repeatedly in the stretch but kicked on while no match for the winner. SUNRISE DRIVE was brushed just lightly at the start, had forward position stalking two to three wide between runners in the second flight, lost some position on the turn, kept on in the lane to gain show honors. BENLION angled in early settled well back, took closer order after saving ground through the turn, lacked room inside in upper stretch then again later in the stretch but ran on willingly. SMALL TALK was caught outside heading to the turn racing off the pace, moved in to go mostly three to four wide on that bend, came out in mid-stretch for room and improved position. BATTLE OF YORKTOWN stalked outside four to five wide, was carried seven deep into upper stretch, bid at the furlong marker but could not sustain the effort. UNILATERAL settled at the rear, saved some ground on the turn, angled eight deep in upper stretch and showed late interest. ADELAIDE COURT brushed a rival lightly at the start, moved forward to stalk then advanced promptly four wide about the half to prompt the pacesetter, was carried six wide by that one, drifted a bit in the lane while weakening. BIG BROWN BREWSKII was forwardly-placed between runners early then stalking two to three wide through the turn, was within contention in upper stretch but came up empty late. AMMUNITION stalked from outside mid-pack five to six wide, came out eight wide into upper stretch, dropped back and faded. HULLABALOO set the pace off the rail, was pressured through the turn and getting out a bit, drifted five wide into upper stretch, came up empty.
