ROYAL FREEDOM forged to the front along the backstretch, alternated in setting and pressing the pace thereafter and gained the nod over BOLD WARRIOR. The latter drove to the fore;from the outside in the early stretch, then was nipped while showing a tendency to loaf. SUN ROAMER moved from far back to attain prominence but lacked a further rally through the stretch. JITTERS rallied too late to threaten. SPRING SCOUT weakened, as did STANS HELEN.
