ACE (IRE) was unhurried while saving ground, raced in hand for a mile, steadily worked his way forward along the inside, made a move to threaten outside the winner in upper stretch but was no match for that one while holding well for the place. AZAMOUR (IRE) raced far back to the turn, altered course in upper stretch then closed late to gain a share. BAGO (FR) was rated in the middle of the pack while saving ground, rallied along the rail entering the stretch, checked in upper stretch then rallied belatedly. ENGLISH CHANNEL raced up close while four wide, lodged a move from outside to threaten entering the stretch but couldn't sustain his bid. SILVERFOOT raced five wide to the turn, steadied in traffic nearing the stretch and passed only tiring horses. BETTER TALK NOW saved ground early, lodged a brief four wide move midway on the turn and flattened out. GUN SALUTE was never a factor while five wide. FOURTY NINERS SON raced far back for a mile, closed the gap to reach contention on the turn four wide then faded in the drive. LEPRECHAUN KID raced wide throughout. LAURA'S LUCKY BOY never reached contention. SHAKESPEARE raced up close while three wide for a mile, steadied on the turn then faltered. SHAKE THE BANK was used up setting the early pace.
