Saturday, July 16

DURANT (CLM15000) took a tuck near the quarter, pulled, grinded up uncovered, had aim but faltered. Beaten favorite will score with better trip.

SPECIAL TERROR (CLM12500) had to go wide in the final turn as cover stopped, had far to come, tried his best but the pacesetting favorite had gotten away.

MCCEDES (CLM15000) another second best challenger who tucked early, came uncovered and challenged the pacesetting favorite but could not get therre. He should be able to nail a win in near future.

PHOTOBOMBR HANOVER (NW3/2YO) tucked early, pulled in the final turn, challenged and roared by leaving a breaking early leader in his wake.
