BLENEL, closer up than usual in the early running, responded willingly when sent after the leaders, disposed of COLONEL HARRY to open a long lead, then was hard ridden in the final stages to hold his advantage safe. ALPINE ASTARTE was in hand while outrun for seven furlongs, came to the extreme outside for the drive and closed with a rush. COLONEL HARRY assumed command when ready and could not hold the winner, but finished gamely. PLAY SOME could not get up in the drive. SPECIALIST and NIKOHS PAL tired.
