CAPTURE THE LION rated kindly on the rail in midfield down the backside, kept pace inside waiting to move on the turn, shifted off the fence finding a seam in the two path at the furlong pole and surged late to get up just before the wire. NIAGARA SKYLINE cleared from the widest post to lead on the rail by the five furlong marker, set the pace going comfortably, uncontested around the turn, found more driving to the finish line and just missed for the frontrunning score just before the wire. I'M A GAMBLER (IRE) settled three deep in mid-division, crept closer three wide outside foes through the turn, was in range behind the leaders in upper stretch, battled bravely between foes for the place share at the eighth pole, was no match for the top pair late but finished up to be a clear third in the end. PERFECT CRIME travelled on the fence near the back of the pack, improved on the rail sitting behind the eventual by the half, continued to keep coming in the two path down the lane and finished with intent inside to be a fringe player in the end. NEVER SURPRISED was tucked in on the rail behind the pacesetter, chased the leader on the fence throughout the turn, shifted out to the three path with a quarter mile to run having a chance for a share of the prize, could not go on and faded in the last eighth. RON'S GIZMO was situated near the rear three deep in the beginning, started to rally four wide between rivals with three furlongs to go, swung out having momentum in the seven path straightening out to the wire and finished up with late energy passing horses to the finish line. SPIRIT ANIMAL stalked near the rear with foes on both sides down the backstretch, co-trailed between horses at the half, offered a run closing the gap in the four path turning for home and finished up mildly in the stretch drive. FOUND MY BALL tracked the frontrunner outside down the backstretch, chased the leader through the turn between rivals, began to get leg weary in the four path with three sixteenths still left to run and tired at the furlong marker. SCOOT DADDY was off a step slow trailing on the rail, saved ground making little movement inside around the bend and could not reach contention inside through the lane. KAUKOKAIPUU settled in midfield between runners, continued with rivals on both sides in the two path through the turn in the middle of the pack, angled out to the six path for the stretch run, drifted inwards at the furlong marker and had no rally in deep stretch. LAST DAWN was near the back four deep outside foes, continued a four wide outside horses on the turn, was floated out to the eight path for the drive to the wire but emptied out by mid-stretch. TARANTO TITAN tracked the leader between foes early on, settled all alone in the third flight through the turn, closed in three wide with three furlongs to race, dueled in the mix up front for a share in the four path with a quarter to go, had nothing left to offer and stopped six wide three sixteenths out.
