FIRST CLASS CAT chased four then three wide patiently handled until set down spinning four wide into upper stretch, rallied to take command a furlong out, edged away to the finish to prevail. LADY BANKER four then three wide in aim of the top pair down the backstretch, prompted the leader from the two path through the turn, swung three wide into upper stretch and ran on to secure the place honors on the wire. KAREN'S HONOR broke out a step at the start awkwardly and was corrected, then was devoid of speed conceding four lengths to the front before settling into stride, chased just off the inside at the tail of the field, came under coaxing at the three-eighths, swung five to six wide into upper stretch, raced on her wrong lead early in the stretch before switching leads near the sixteenth pole, then kicked on belatedly to the finish to just miss for the place honors. FRANNIE LEW stumbled at the start and recovered quickly to only concede about a length to the front, established the lead and showed the way in hand three then two wide knocking heads early with LEADERSHIP ABILITY before shaking that rival off half a mile from home, tucked directly in front of that foe forcing that one to be lightly steadied off her heels at the seven-sixteenths, came under coaxing near the quarter pole, spun just off the inside into upper stretch, yielded the front near the eighth pole and weakened in the late stages. MOONLIT WEEKEND chased just off the inside coming under coaxing at the three-eighths, angled four wide into upper stretch and stayed on one paced to the end. LEADERSHIP ABILITY coaxed from the gate, showed brief speed from the two path and then inside before being shaken off near the half mile pole, got lightly taken in hand as FRANNIE LEW crossed in front with seven-sixteenths to go, came under coaxing at the three-eighths, took the inside route into upper stretch and tired.
