AFTER MY OWN HEART tracked the slow pace from the inside of ABOVE THE FOLD while traveling well, put pressure on that one going into the turn and took over the lead passing the three furlong marker, took a short lead into the stretch, finished strong and held on. IN WITHOUT KNOCKIN came away well without being asked for speed, tracked three wide through the first turn and mid-pack down the backstretch, started to make a move to the outside going into the turn but was blocked, altered path to the inside when a huge hole opened up, finished well under strong handling and intermittent urging but could not get to the winner. C HER BEAUTY was pushed for forward position from the start, launched a bid from the three furlong pole, came five wide into the stretch and put in a good run under intermittent urging but was not quite good enough. ABOVE THE FOLD was hustled from the break and gained the early lead before the first turn, slowed the pace down through the early stages with most of the rest in close pursuit, lost the lead to AFTER MY OWN HEART with three furlongs to run, came four wide into the lane and finished well under steady handling down the stretch but did not have enough left to threaten. IRISH SONG LEADER allowed to settle from the break, kept to the inside through the clubhouse turn and was reserved at the back of the pack to the half-mile marker, saved ground through the far turn but lacked a late bid. TIZTHEHARTOFDIXIE came away from the gate awkwardly and spotted the field a few lengths head start then was far behind the field going into the first turn, made a strong mid-race move while four wide down the backstretch to be up with the leaders passing the half-mile marker then dropped off the pace abruptly near the three furlong marker and was not a factor the rest of the way.
