KEEN TO GO stalked four deep early on the clubhouse turn then moved into the two path before tipping back out leaving the bend, bid three deep with three furlongs remaining, took over at the five-sixteenths pole, put away inner rival a quarter mile out and moved inside, opened up into the stretch and widened under mild urging in an impressive victory. MIDNIGHT MOJO went five deep into the clubhouse turn, moved inward settling off the pace then four wide into the backstretch, raced outside a rival at the back in the middle stages, went three deep into the far turn, moved into the two path then chased from the three path turning for home, could not make any headway on the winner but kept on to earn the place honors. SYNTACTIC coaxed from the gate and was sent up into a tight spot between runners, got through and pressed the pace between rivals, took over at the halfway point dueling from outside, lost command at the five-sixteenths pole, chased after the new leader with a quarter mile remaining and flattened to third in the stretch run. BIG DRINKER stalked from inside, lost positions up the backstretch, bumped outer rival nearing the five-sixteenths pole, tipped around a weakening rival then moved back inside around the bend and failed to menace. SUPERMAX trailed two wide early, went between rivals leaving the backstretch, bumped with outer rival past the seven-sixteenths pole, bumped with inner rival near the five-sixteenths pole and could not rally. SIPPIN WHISKEY raced up close three deep early, chased the top pair past the midway point, rounded the far turn four wide and had little left for the stretch run. SPLASHED IN GOLD took control from the rail position under pressure, lost command at the halfway point, dueled to the seven-sixteenths pole, dropped back to last on the far turn, eased in the final furlong and walked off.
