MOTHER'S PRAYER stalked three then two wide, applied pressure from outside on the backstretch, took over past the five-sixteenths pole, put inner rival away late on the bend, then drew off under mild urging in the lane and was ridden out to the wire. NOLDE settled inside, moved off the rail on the backstretch, traveled two then three wide on the far turn, took aim in upper stretch but was no match for the winner. HAPPY DOES stalked two wide into the first turn, became rank and steadied briefly midway around the bend, coaxed along up the backstretch, asked on the rail then two wide leaving the bend, lost a clear path between rivals and altered out quickly in upper stretch, kept on trying through the final furlong and held third. RICH GOLD chased five deep into the first turn, angled to the three path around the bend, stayed off the rail near the back on the backstretch, rounded the far turn four then five wide, moved out further in the lane, summoned a mild rally and missed third. KOBE W sprinted to the front and moved to the inside, took pressure on the backstretch, lost command midway around the far turn, chased the new leader into the lane, drifted out in upper stretch and faded. BIG FLAME got crowded between rivals on the first turn, ridden along up the backstretch, saved ground through the far turn, tipped two wide leaving the bend and failed to menace. TESORO stalked in the three path, pushed on through the far turn while angling four wide and weakened. ITS THIEVERY stalked four then three wide early, remained wide to the stretch and failed to respond to urging. BROTHER O' BRIEN traveled three then two wide towards the rear on the first turn, trailed two wide into the second bend, asked right handed and failed to make an imapct. MOUNT PELLIAR trailed three wide into the first turn, chased outside a rival into the second bend, spun three wide into the lane and was never a factor.
