OCEAN ATLANTIQUE along the inside through the first turn, tracked the leader from just off the inside just off the pace, tucked inside three furlongs out, got let out angled six wide into upper stretch, rallied to take command a furlong from home, dug in gamely to fend off the runner up to the wire. BELOUNI (FR) broke out brushing the off side stall and then bumping AMBITION, raced just off the inside through the first turn and then three paths off the rail down the backstretch, tucked inside through the far turn, went seven wide into upper stretch, rallied with good energy inside the final furlong latching on the top one a sixteenth out, but was ultimately rebuffed to the finish. PAROS raced just off the inside through the first turn and then three to four paths off the rail down the backstretch, tucked to the two path through the far turn and advanced on the leader taking command swinging five wide into upper stretch, dug in under threat and was caught a furlong out, then weakened in the late stages while along for the show honors. LIFE AND LIGHT showed the way in hand just off the inside and then along the inside, got let out spinning just off the inside into upper stretch and yielded the front straightened away, then weakened through to the finish. POLAR BEAR PLUNGE coaxed from the start, raced just off the inside through the first turn and then three paths off the inside down the backstretch, tucked to the two path through the far turn and came under urging with five-sixteenths to go, swung four wide for home and tired. AMBITION got bumped at the start by BELOUNI, who broke outwards, raced three wide through the first turn and then four then three wide thereafter, angled six to seven wide into upper stretch and tired. SHARP SPARK got bumped at the start by SMILENSAYCHEESE, who broke outwards, chased just off the inside coming under a ride with five-sixteenths to run, spun two to three wide into upper stretch, tired. SMILENSAYCHEESE broke out at the start bumping SHARP SPARK, raced four then three wide through the first turn before heading outside into the backstretch, steadily got out seven to eight paths off the inside midway while growing detached at the tail of the field, got eased along well behind near the outside fence through the far turn and was pulled up with the aid of the outrider near the eighth pole and then walked off under his own power. This race had a timing discrepancy or malfunction and was re-timed using video technology to arrive at the most accurate time.
