GRINDSTONE commenced to rally approaching the end of the backstretch, worked his way between horses along the inside around the far turn, angled out five wide entering the stretch and finished strongly to wear down CAVONNIER in the final stride while drifting out. The latter moved within easy striking distance between horses entering the backstretch, came out five wide to make a run on the far turn, was struck across the face by the whip of HALO SUNSHINE's rider nearing the stretch and, after gaining a clear advantage leaving the furlong grounds, just failed to last. PRINCE OF THIEVES laced room after the start, moved up along the inside approaching the stretch, came out for the drive but wasn't good enough. HALO SUNSHINE, never far back, moved up inside the leaders at the far turn, was racing forwardly when his rider struck CAVONNIER with his whip near the stretch and weakened late. UNBRIDLED'S SONG, racing with two bar shoes, came away in good order, followed HONOUR AND GLORY and MATTY G into the backstretch while racing five wide, took over just after going six furlongs, continued wide into the stretch while clearly in front and weakened. EDITOR'S NOTE, off slowly and outrun early, raced nine wide passing horses approaching the stretch and failed to seriously menace. BLOW OUT, badly outrun early while saving ground, advanced between horses around the far turn, but failed to sustain his rally and was steadied near the final furlong. ALYROB, brushed with HONOUR AND GLORY after the start, raced between horses while advancing around the far turn, then lugged in while tiring during the drive. DILIGENCE, in close following the start, failed to be a serious factor while working his way between horses through the upper stretch. VICTORY SPEECH, reserved early, made a run along the inside racing into the far turn and gave way. CORKER, bothered following the start, raced wide much of the way. SKIP AWAY, within easy striking distance while five wide around the first turn and into the backstretch, was finished soon after going six furlongs while continuing wide. ZARB'S MAGIC, between horses much of the way, tired badly from his early efforts. SEMORAN, well placed to the final turn while racing between horses, tired badly. IN CONTENTION broke out into CORKER after the start, and failed to be a serious factor. LOUIS QUATORZE, wide after coming away in close quarters, tired badly. MATTY G, prominent to the far turn while between horses, stopped badly. HONOUR AND GLORY quickly sprinted clear after brushing with ALYROB following the start, remained in the three or four path while showing speed for seven furlongs and gave way suddenly. BUILT FOR PLEASURE, well out in the track while between horses, raced forwardly into the backstretch but was finished before reaching the far turn. Scratched - City by Night on Friday.
