TRADEMARK broke out and bumped an outer rival at the start, stalked the trio of duelers from the three to four path around the first turn, pursued three wide before bidding approaching the three furlong pole, assumed command and drew clear at the five sixteenths pole, then widened under driving pressure. ACTUATOR brushed with an inner foe at the start, tracked in midpack two wide, chased under urging three to four wide and among rivals around the far turn before shifting to the rail in upper stretch, then sustained a grinding charge to reach place from an outer foe entering the final sixteenth. SAINT TAPIT tracked two to three wide and between horses, emerged from among rivals to gain place in the four path while under an all out drive turning for home, inched closer to take aim on the clear leader nearing the lane, but failed to keep pace in upper stretch, yielded, lost place to an inner foe at the sixteenth pole, then saved show. ETHEREAL ROAD settled far back two wide, shifted from the five path to the four path turning for home to knife through rivals entering the lane, and stayed on in the final furlong, but missed reaching an outer foe for show. BIG BLUE LINE tracked along the inside, got shuffled back behind tiring foes two wide around the far turn before tipping three wide turning for home, but was floated inwardly in upper stretch, and lacked a bid. CREATIVE MINISTER laid off of the pace four wide, improved to a tracking postiion down the backstretch, chased the clearing leader while getting outkicked for place by an inner rival turning for home, and gave way. SERIFOS saved ground off of the pace, but awaited racing room behind tiring traffic around the far turn, and failed to factor. PIONEER OF MEDINA broke a step slowly before being pinched back between horses at the start, raced far back three wide, was driven to gain five wide around the far turn, but made little impact. MAXIMUM IMPACT broke slowly, trailed, swung six wide in upper stretch, and failed to factor. MAGOO brushed with an outer foe at eth start, dueled for the lead inside of a pair of foes around the first turn, chased down the backstretch, but was shuffled back while fading around the far turn. CASTLE LEOCH dueled for the lead between horses around the first turn, chased his outer counterpart down the backstretch, then weakened around the far turn. STEINBECK brushed an inner foe at the start, dueled three wide, led down the backstretch, but was headed at the three furlong pole, and wilted turning for home.
