JAYS MOM, always within striking distance, took command when shaken and gradually drew clear. SWEET WENDY G. moved up boldly between horses at the furlong marker to reach near even terms with the leaders, was unable to withstand the winner, but lasted to outgame JIGGLE. The latter showed good speed throughout and held on willingly enough in a sharp effort. PINK CLOUD failed to respond when called upon for her best effort. EOCENE finished with good courage. HEARTACHE tired when the real test came. SINGING GIRL and WILD RISK were outrun. BEAT YESTERDAY quit, as did FORSAKEN. RELLIE was outdistanced early. BONNIE GEM never was dangerous.

MEG MARCH, never far back, responded to pressure when straightened for the stretch run and wore down WAR ATOM in the concluding strides. WAR ATOM held a clear lead inside the furlong marker, tired during the late stages and, though unable to repel the winner, easily bested the others. BASHAW, far back early while racing on the outside, came to the inside for the drive, but was not good enough. FIT FIDDLE was forced to take the complete overland route when making his belated bid. CLOUDY, much used early, had little left. KADER quit. WHISKEY SOUR was never prominent. LE GAULOIS retired steadily after flashing brief speed. SAILOR LAD was always outrun.

ERROLFORD went to the front after COEUR left the course following the third hurdle, held sway thereafter under steady rating and won with something left. RpMAN WAY raced in closest pursuit of the winner during most of the journey, but failed to respond when shaken for the ultimate test. MARCHEAST, slightly unprepared at the start, worked his way forward to the stretch and finished with good courage. KNOCKS TWICE was outdistanced early. SPLEEN never was dangerous.

The latter moved up boldly between horses to gain closer contention when set down for the drive and gradually was wearing down the leader.

GLEANED slipped through next the inside rail to take command on the final turn, drifted out during the stretch run, but increased the advantage over CHUM. The latter, forced to take up slightly when the winner came out inside the furlong marker, was unable to regain best stride. MERMAN alternated in pressing and setting the early pace, tired when punished and was no match for the top ones. SHOW DOWN saved ground to no avail. KATHY T. was outrun. ROBERT DEAR began fastest, then faded from contention. TALION stopped badly once displaced. Overweight— Merman, 1 pound; Kathy T., 2; Neo Nina, 1. Gleaned claimed by S. P. Steckler.
