BRITISH ARTILLERY took back off the early scramble to have the two path stalking close the tail end on the first bend, closed the gap strongly four deep outside early along the backstretch, dropped back again to be part of the rear trio outside with a half mile to run, came with a three to four wide circling charge outside horses around the last turn, had the four path turning for home and continued on with the long sustained rally outside to edge clear for the win in the shadow of the wire. ACCELERANDO was bumped by the inside runner on the break, recovered to have a nice set up isolated on the fence watching the embattled duo on the first turn, shifted out in the three path through the backside coming to the leaders entering the last turn, moved outside the frontrunner by the five sixteenths pole with a sharp rally, seized control by the quarter pole, edged clear in the two path by mid-stretch on the wrong lead, finally switched leads at the sixteenth pole but it was too late by that time with the winner driving past for the win outside. KING ROSSO broke outwards leaving the gate, then was hard ridden on the rail but could not match strides with the lead twosome instead settling in midfield in the early stages inside, saved all the ground on the last turn but was making little headway, began to gather momentum lengthening stride three wide at the top of the stretch, angled to the five path at the furlong pole for clearer run and finished up smartly getting up for third inside coming to the wire. TRUE SHOT was brushed on the outside on the break, had only one runner beaten taking the first corner, co-trailed with rivals on both sides at the half, made little progress three wide on the far turn, shifted to the five path for the stretch run making up good ground, dueled outside for the show award in deep stretch but had to settle on the fringes instead losing the fight at the finish line. COMMANDER AT SEA was brushed on the outside to begin, trailed the field into the first turn, remaining at the back with two outside foes at the half, was relegated back to being the sole trailer on the last bend, hugged the rail making a move in upper stretch, shifted to the three path off the tiring early leader at the sixteenth pole and finished up with some late interest. FRAC RIGHT broke inwards on the start, contested the pace outside early on, vied between runners down the backstretch at the half, could not quicken with the front pair by the five sixteenths pole, shifted to the three-path finding something more coming back on briefly at the top of the lane but ran out of gas late fading in deep stretch. JMR SPEEDY ESCAPE sat all alone in the middle of the pack in the early running, took closer aim outside tracking the lead threesome at the half mile marker, was scrubbed on for more trying to hold position two wide through the last turn and had little to offer for the drive to the wire unable to get involved in the late going. BANKINGONAMIRACLE broke in at the start, had a head in front inside around the initial bend, inched away slightly on the fence by the half, was collared outside by the midpoint of the far turn, tried to counter again hugging the rail turning for home but could not continue on late and folded inside of horses by the sixteenth pole.
