NANCI GRIFFITH chased four wide early, bid three deep on the far turn, fought outside the lead in the three path turning for home, lost contact briefly past the eighth pole, came back to regain the lead at the sixteenth pole and drove clear. NOTHING IS FOREVER sat off the pace on the inside, angled three wide around the far turn, rallied down the lane and got up to share second. I HAD THAT ONE TOO stumbled leaving the gate, lagged behind on the inside, passed a tired rival on the far turn, continued to hug the rail to the stretch, tipped out a bit in upper stretch, put in a late run and got up for second. ISSA COURT dueled for command early in the two path, inched ahead on the backstretch, took pressure with three furlongs remaining, resisted into the lane, cleared briefly past the eighth pole, shifted out at the sixteenth pole and weakened late. RAISING SILVER broke a step slow, went up to duel from inside, took a stalking position on the backstretch, fell out of range on the far turn, churned on down the lane but could not find the needed late punch. A FLEET RIDE showed early speed three deep into the first turn then took a stalking position around the bend, remained off the rail to the far turn, fell out of range, came five wide into the stretch and failed to rally. WILD CAT DANZING stalked two wide then along the rail, lost ground while getting moved to the four path on the far turn, came three wide into the lane and weakened. LADY MONCLAIRE stalked in the four path then angled to the two path around the first turn, lost ground on the second bend and weakened in the drive. BIG CELEBRATION settled five then four wide on the clubhouse turn, dropped back to last and angled in on the far turn and came up empty in the lane.
