SIMO close up to the early pace, tracked four then three wide into the turn, took command at the top of the lane, drew off into the final sixteenth, kept to task late under mild hand urging. SWINGING SOLO rated just off of the early pace, saved ground to the turn, caught in tight and bumped midway along the bend, battled from the inside into upper stretch, no match for the winner into the drive, held for a share of the place honors. SONG SO SWEET sent to contest the early pace from between foes, traded bumps with SWINGING SOLO midway through the turn, got outkicked by the eventual winner into upper stretch, fought on through the lane and got up in time to share for the place honors. WASAMATTAFOYOU away in good order, contested the early pace between foes, stalked three wide into the turn then was shuffled back approaching the quarter pole, fought on into the stretch, needed more late and was outkicked for the place honors. FIGHTING WORDS settled outside of rivals, widest nearing the quarter pole, spun five wide to the stretch and passed tiring rivals late. FRIOLENTO settled just off of the early pace, lacked the needed response nearing the quarter marker, trailed into upper stretch and did not rally late. DIME PAPI close up to the early pace while four then five wide approaching the turn, tracked to the quarter marker, lost ground into upper stretch and weakened in the drive.

TIMSHEL attended to the decent pace into the backstretch, vied between rivals into the far turn then battled into the stretch, determinedly dug in into the final sixteenth and held off the runner-up in deep stretch to prevail. I'M SAM well placed early on, stalked the pace three wide to the half-mile, bid into the far turn and took a narrow lead at the quarter marker, battled outside of a pair rivals into the lane, lost the lead to TIMSHEL in the final sixteenth, was denied for the win in deep stretch and held clearly for the place. JUSTIN SMILES settled off of the early pace, never far back along the backstretch, chased from the three then four path into upper stretch, mounted a mild late rally, could not impact the top pair late and was along for the show. TIMEFRAME showed good speed away from the gate, took early command and set a contested pace to the backstretch, came under pressure and met oncoming bids into the far turn, battled into upper stretch, could not find more into the final furlong and faded late.
