Start good and slow. Won handily; second and third driving. CAVALCADE, away slowly, was not permitted to make up much ground for a half-mile, then began moving up leaving the backstretch, where he came through between horses, wore down DISCOVERY and drew out for a handy win. DISCOVERY, away fast, drew into an easy lead approaching the stretch, and held on well, but was overmatched. AGRARIAN far back for seven-eighths and slow to respond to pressure, closed resolutely. PEACE CHANCE, away slowly, lost ground entering the stretch and closed with a rush. SPY HILL raced well. TIME CLOCK began in a tangle. SINGING WOOD quit. BAZAAR failed to respond to urging. SGT. BYRNE quit. Scratched - Riskulus, Blue Again, Prince Pompey, Fogarty, Thomasville, Howard.
