INTREPID made the pace in hand, saved ground throughout and, under strong handling through the stretch run, held COPACABANA safe. The latter was shuffled back on the inside soon after the start, came to the outside rounding the stretch turn and made a bold bid in the late stages. JHANSI broke in a tangle and was steadied along to the stretch turn, where he was brought between horses when set down for the drive and finished full of run. NAVY AWARD was never far back, raced on the outside much of the way and lacked a closing rally. APPLAUSE was never a serious threat. CUSTODY showed an even effort.

HARD FACTS broke alertly, forced the pace in hand from the outside, displaced BLUNT REMARK under extreme pressure nearing the last eighth and held his advantage under a sustained drive. BLUNT REMARK wrested command from the inside in the run down the backstretch, drew out rounding the turn, but faltered under punishment when challenged in the drive. HALS PAL, taken under snug restraint soon after the break, raced wide much of the way and closed a big gap when rallying in the late stages. MR. McGREGOR, slow to settle into his best stride, found racing room between horses when set down for the drive and made up ground fast. LARKMEAD ANDY was well placed from the beginning, saved ground throughout, but lacked a closing rally. BEST EFFORT had no mishap in an even effort. ATTIC was through early.

LITHE was under energetic handling early to gain the lead, disposed of NASOPHAR after a half and, under punishment through the stretch, held GAFFERY safe. The latter, allowed to drop far back in the early stages, found racing room on the inside when roused for the drive and made a belated bid. NASOPHAR forced the pace in hand from the inside, was under extreme pressure in the last quarter and, while tiring, commenced drifting out and finished on even terms with BOOMDEAY. The latter broke very slowly, was steadied to the last quarter and came to the outside to finish with a belated rush. TASSEL raced evenly. CHEESECLOTH was never a threat. GAY MOOD was outrun.
