CLEAN MACHINE broke well and dueled inside ARTISTIC LANEY through the early stages, responded when set down near the quarter pole as CRAFTED made a three-wide bid, had something in reserve, battled that rival through the stretch and edged clear in the closing stages to prevail. CRAFTED broke awkwardly outward and was last away, settled at the back to the turn, launched a bid from the three-furlong pole, drew even with the two leaders turning for home, dueled gamely with CLEAN MACHINE through the stretch, then gave way grudgingly in the final yards while holding clear for the place. ARTISTIC LANEY broke well and went head-to-head with CLEAN MACHINE from the outset and through the turn, gave way passing the quarter pole and continued evenly through the late stages to hold third. MR. HIGH POCKETS was sent hard from the break but lacked the speed to contest the pace, settled in third position to the stretch, then failed to change leads through the late stages and was unable to improve. This race had a timing discrepancy or malfunction and was re-timed using video technology to arrive at the most accurate time.

CHART — Equibase footnotes:
BREAKHEART PASS settled behind the dueling leaders in the second flight, remained within range through the turn, slipped through along the rail near the three-sixteenths pole when SAMURAI SWORD drifted out, quickly took command and drew clear through the late stages. LITTLE TRUCK lacked early speed and settled near the rear while saving ground, came under coaxing to keep pace through the early stages, went into a full drive from the three-eighths pole and rallied along the inside through the stretch to gain the place. RULE THE ROOST raced in the second flight alongside BREAKHEART PASS behind the dueling leaders, was unable to go with that rival when BREAKHEART PASS kicked on approaching the three-eighths pole, came under a drive and lost some ground, then came back on with a three-wide rally through the late stages to gain third. SAMURAI SWORD dueled with EL NOTIONAL through the early stages while lugging out as the pair raced clear of the others, continued to lug out two to three paths into the stretch and left an opening along the rail, then weakened through the late stages. COME HERE KARL settled toward the rear, lost ground through the middle stages and passed tiring rivals through the late stages. SKEDAZZLE settled with the trailing group through the early stages and failed to make an impact through the late stages. EL NOTIONAL dueled with SAMURAI SWORD through the early stages while clear of the others, remained involved through the middle stages, then gave way through the stretch. HEARTACHES got roughed up after the start, trailed through the early stages, improved slightly approaching the stretch but failed to make an impact. This race had a timing discrepancy or malfunction and was re-timed using video technology to arrive at the most accurate time.

KICK IT IN settled in the middle of the pack, began to close on the top pair approaching the stretch, steadily cut into the leader's advantage and was up in the final strides. GLACIAL POWER seized the early lead and was left to dictate moderate fractions, responded when asked to quicken late on the turn, battled gamely when confronted by CANDY ADDICTION near the quarter pole, bested that rival by midstretch but could not hold off the winner. CANDY ADDICTION tracked GLACIAL POWER through the tepid pace, moved to challenge that rival for the lead after passing the three-furlong pole, chased in vain through the stretch without being able to pull even, then weakened in the final furlong. MONEY AGENT tracked near the back, was outfinished through the stretch and unable to improve. MIDNIGHT TEQUILA settled at the back, remained in range to the stretch, but lacked a rally and was never a threat. This race had a timing discrepancy or malfunction and was re-timed using video technology to arrive at the most accurate time. Total Attendance: 0 Handle: $182,806
