Race Summary

GREAT ATTACK vied for the lead off the inside and drew clear under steady urging. THREE DAY RUSH within striking distance four wide, lodged a mild bid for the place. CALIBRACHOA forwardly placed three wide, lacked a rally. SUCCESSFUL SCORE outsprinted early, raced five wide with three furlongs to go and had little left late. FLATTER THAN ME close up while off the rail, gave way. WILDCAT NATION within striking distance three wide, faded. YOU ALREADY KNOW shuffled back at the start, was outrun five wide. FISH shuffled back at the start, was outrun. SILVER SUMMATION hopped in the air at the start and was outrun. SHOW ME WHY forced the pace along the inside and stopped.
