MYSTIC SONG had the rail sitting in midfield along the backside, moved up on the fence tracking in the second flight poised to make a move through the turn, hugged the rail mounting a rally in upper stretch, powered past taking control by the sixteenth pole inside and edged away for the win at the finish line. SAUCY NAME broke sharp for the early advantage on the inside, narrowly remained up top battling on the fence around the bend, shifted to the three path just holding on with runners bearing down on either side at the furlong pole, drifted out under left-handed encouragement with a sixteenth of a mile still to run giving way to the winner inside and finished up well enough to be second best crossing the wire. MIGHT BEE TROUBLE travelled three deep on the outside of runners in the back group, started to make a rally around horses three wide midway on the turn, angled out for clear run six wide at the top of the stretch, found his best stride late and closed in to get up in the final jump outside for the show award. WILDFIRE was under a good hold shadowing the frontrunner outside, moved in to battle outside the pacesetter throughout the turn, still was in the thick of things four wide at the top of the stretch up top, was bumped by the inside leader dueling for the front end at the sixteenth pole losing his momentum, tried to get back into gear late but was nabbed outside at the wire for the show money. PRINCESSONAMISSION co-trailed on the fence down the backstretch, took the short way around making improvement inside of runners through the turn, scraped paint at the top of the lane and finished in with mild interest on the inside in the late running. UNHEARD travelled between rivals in mid-division, dropped back slightly to be in the third tier still between foes around the oval, moved to the three path for the drive to the wire but could not get into contention, failing to fire in the final furlong. ZIPPY GAMBLE was part of the back trio stalking between runners, could not keep up to others making a run seeing the field around the turn, shifted out to the five path for the stretch drive and could only catch a weary rival inside at the furlong pole. WORLD SHOWCASE tracked the engaged duo while three deep outside runners down the backside, travelled outside the eventual winner in the second flight keeping an eye on the embattled pair through the turn, had little to give turning for home and folded in the four path by upper stretch.
