Race Summary

VICTORY GALLOP, outrun early while saving ground, reached easy striking distance as the field tightened up beginning the second turn, remained inside until approaching the five-sixteenths pole, swung out deftly six wide when entering the stretch, wrested command nearing the furlong grounds and increased his advantage under hand urging to win impressively in record time. NITE DREAMER, rated three wide while stalking the dueling leaders from early on, moved boldly four wide approaching the stretch, reached the front between calls at the quarter-mile ground but wasn't a match for VICTORY GALLOP in the drive. LITTLEBITLIVELY gained a slight edge inside early, dueled with CONNECTING TERMS, held on well until approaching the stretch and weakened gradually. SILVER CHARM hopped at the start while breaking a bit awkwardly, recovered to race within easy striking distance while lightly rated four or five wide, moved with the winner while inside that one approaching the stretch but flattened out the final furlong. PRECOCITY, within striking distance most of the way, had no rally. DA DEVIL swerved out at the start, followed the leaders five or six wide approaching the stretch, came out further in the track for the drive but came up empty. CONNECTING TERMS also hopped a bit at the start, recovered and went up early to contest the pace outside of LITTLEBITLIVELY, held on well for six furlongs and weakened steadily thereafter.

Race Summary

PUERTO MADERO (CHI) settled in good position just off the early pace, tucked in behind the leaders while saving ground along the backstretch. swung out to launch his bid on the turn, rallied three wide into the stretch, surged to the front in midstretch then edged away under a vigorous hand ride. BEHRENS broke inward brushing with EARLY WARNING at the start, was reserved for a half while racing in the middle of the pace, closed the gap along the inside on the turn, angled three wide while rallying on the turn, made a run to threaten in upper stretch but was no match for the winner while finishing well to best the others. SILVER CHARM was unhurried early while three wide on the first turn, raced well back for six furlongs, gradually gained while four wide on the turn, drifted in slightly in upper stretch then rallied mildly to gain a share. HANARSAAN was outrun for seven furlongs, rallied along the rail leaving the turn then improved his position with a late run along the inside. SIR BEAR forced the early pace from outside, battled heads apart outside LITTLEBITLIVELY midway on the turn, gained a slim lead in upper stretch and weakened in the final eighth. TRULUCK raced in the middle of the pace to the turn then failed to threaten while drifting out in the lane. UNRULED was far back along the inside on the turn, was angled out in upper stretch then lacked a strong closing bid while finishing in the middle of the track. LITTLEBITLIVELY took the lead soon after the start, set the pace under pressure to the top of the stretch and tired from his early efforts. FRISK ME NOW raced in close contention while four wide to the turn and gave way. WILLING in hand early, faded after going five furlongs. CRYPTO STAR was never a factor and pulled up in distress after the finish and was vanned off. EARLY WARNING chased the early leaders while three wide and stopped on the turn.

Race Summary

SILVER CHARM went up to vie for the lead soon after the start while inside of WILD RUSH, raced in the three path and dueled with that one, was headed between calls entering the backstretch by WILD RUSH, regained the lead soon after, lost the advantage again to that one just before going six furlongs, recaptured the the lead approaching the final quarter, again was displaced in front by LITTLEBITLEVELY approaching the final furlong, then dug in tenaciously through the late stage under right-handed whipping to prevail. LITTLEBITLIVELY, nicely maneuvered inside soon after the start, saved ground while stalking the leaders in hand, was eased back a bit at the far turn, made a bold run from the rail entering the stretch, brushed the inner railing nearing the final furlong while reaching the front, then was outgamed in the final stages. WILD RUSH broke alertly, dueled with SILVER CHARM while outside that one racing four or five wide, reached the front briefly on the backstretch and again on the second turn, continued close up into the final furlong and weakened only slightly. RUNNING STAG moved inside on the backstretch, raced within easy striking distance, lacked room briefly in the upper stretch, then, when an opening appeared, lacked a final response. HANARSAAN, outrun and unhurried for six furlongs, came out to make a run six wide approaching the stretch, came out a bit further when straightened for the drive but failed to respond. DAWSON'S LEGACY stalked the dueling leaders four or five wide until nearing the stretch and came up empty in the drive OAK LEVEL raced in contention for six furlongs and failed to respond when the test came. ACCEPTABLE was finished midway of the second turn.

Race Summary

AWESOME AGAIN, unhurried early, advanced four wide midway on the second turn, split horses and angled inside the drifting SILVER CHARM leaving the furlong grounds, then finished strongly under steady left handed pressure to be along in time. SILVER CHARM prompted the pace four wide down the backstretch, rallied to gain a narrow lead entering the stretch, then gave way grudgingly while drifting wide in the final furlong. SWAIN (IRE), well placed early while saving ground, angled four wide late on the second turn, gained near even terms for the lead in upper stretch, then bore out badly the remainder under steady left handed pressure. VICTORY GALLOP, taken in hand early, advanced inside on the second turn, then finished with good energy just inside the winner. CORONADO'S QUEST sprinted clear, maintained a clear lead under a long hold, remained a sharp factor to deep stretch, then weakened. SKIP AWAY pressed the pace in hand while saving ground, then came up empty through the drive. RUNNING STAG, steadied early between foes, then failed to reach serious contention. TOUCH GOLD, in hand early, offered a mild bid approaching the three-eighths pole, then flattened out. ARCH pressed the pace three wide down the backstretch, remained a forward factor to upper stretch and tired. GENTLEMEN (ARG), well placed, was through after three-quarters after racing wide and was eased through the stretch.

Race Summary

SILVER CHARM stalked the pace outside FREE HOUSE, bid three deep into and on the second turn, took a short lead in upper stretch and pulled clear under urging. FREE HOUSE, tracked the pace off the rail, bid between rivals on the second turn, dueled between foes on that bend, could not match the winner in the final furlong but was second best. SCORE QUICK, sped to the early lead, set the pace inside, dueled inside on the second turn and to midstretch, then clearly bested the others. SOVEREIGN M.D. came off the inside on the backstretch and was not a threat. ALBAHA saved ground and was outrun. DON'T BLAME RIO, outside SOVEREIGN M.D. on the first turn, found the rail on the second turn and was done early.

Race Summary

SILVER CHARM eased back bit into the first turn, was angled out soon after, moved up outside WILD RUSH nearing the second turn and after a prolonged drive, finished on even terms with that rival while brushing with that one in deep stretch. WILD RUSH vied for lead off the inside, gained the inside entering the second turn when challenged by SILVER CHARM, came off the rail for the drive and held on tenaciously after a long drive to dead heat SILVER CHARM while brushing with that one in deep stretch. ACCEPTABLE contested early pace inside, couldn't keep up with the top two on the second turn and gave way the final quarter. MAGNIFY reserved inside, steadily dropped back the final three furlongs. IAN'S THUNDER far back early, never reached contention.
