LADY THORNHILL settled unhurried just off the inside at the tail of the field, tucked inside with seven-sixteenths to go and came under coaxing near the five-sixteenths tipping out to swing six wide for home when let out for the drive, rallied to issue a challenge a furlong from home, came in under a right handed crop forcing RUSSIARUSSIARUSSIA to shy in which in turn pushed FIST FULL OF DICE in behind NEW GINYA causing her to steady off that leader's heels, got pulled outwards and dug in to just get up on the wire and prevail. NEW GINYA tracked the pace along the inside patiently handled until roused cutting the corner into upper stretch, rallied to take narrow command at the three-sixteenths getting brushed and nudged by JUST OK IS NOT OK due to pressure from FIST FULL OF DICE coming inwards, dug in under threat from a trio to the sixteenth marker when LADY THORNHILL came inwards putting a pause on a pair and was nailed on the wire by the lone rival left from the fracas of the stretch run. RUSSIARUSSIARUSSIA got steadied off the heels of a rival into the first turn as I'M FINE also steadied briefly in front, tracked the pace just off the inside from near the rear of the field, tucked briefly inside before tipping back to the two path put to coaxing near the five-sixteenths, angled five wide into upper stretch, rallied to issue a challenge through the final furlong, shied in when LADY THORNHILL came inwards a sixteenth out and was paused when nudging FIST FULL OF DICE in behind NEW GINYA, then kept on to preserve the show honors on the wire. MASTEROF THE TUNES three then two wide in pursuit, came under coaxing at the five-sixteenths, angled four wide into upper stretch and offered up a mild bid. FIST FULL OF DICE hustled from the gate, raced three wide in aim of the front, came under coaxing at the five-sixteenths, continued three wide for home, came in at the three-sixteenths when getting on near even terms for command and bumped and forced JUST OK IS NOT OK to check out between rivals at that station which in turn also forced an additional pair of I'M FINE and BELLA PRINCIPESSA to steady and alter in behind, dug in latched on the leader, began to be shaken off and was bumped inwards by RUSSIARUSSIARUSSIA when LADY THORNTON came inwards under a right handed crop forcing RUSSIARUSSIARUSSIA to shy in and continued on in hand to the wire. I'M FINE steadied briefly into the first turn, tracked the pace along the inside coming under coaxing at the five-sixteenths, took the inside route into upper stretch, got forced to take very brief hold and was altered out as JUST OK IS NOT OK checked in front and was outkicked thereafter. JUST OK IS NOT OK showed the way in hand along the inside patiently handled until set down spinning just off the inside into upper stretch, dug in between foes and had FIST FULL OF DICE come inwards and was nudged and forced to check out in tight just inside the three-sixteenths which in turn forced an additional pair to s. BELLA PRINCIPESSA coaxed from the gate, raced just off the inside in closest aim of the leader, got set down continuing just off the inside for home, got forced to steady and alter just inside the three-sixteenths, then weakened to the finish. STARSHIP BELMONT chased two to three wide under coaxing from the three-eighths, spun just off the inside for home and offered no response. VALLELUJAH chased two to three wide under coaxing from the three-eighths, went four to five wide for home and tired. There was a Stewards' Inquiry into the stretch run focusing on RUSSIARUSSIARUSSIA and FIST FULL OF DICE which was reviewed and dismissed prior to the race being declared official.
