A LOT OF GOLD was a bit slow into stride, raced towards the rear under urging, went around most of the turn in the two path then shifted to the four path, came out to the seven path into upper stretch and was no factor.

BILLY BUCCHERO broke a bit slow then ducked in and was taken up, moved from the inside to the five path on the turn, came into upper stretch in the eight path and never reached contention. SPHINX was hustled from the gate, contested the pace on the inside of three foes, dropped back leaving the backstretch, chased inside to the two path on the turn and came up empty.
