The latter moved clear soon after the start, dominated the pace for six furfbngs, then shortened stride and was tiring under stout urging. PARTID0 II. was unable to menace under stout pressure. M0FLAME was taken up slightly when caught in close quarters at the far turn and failed to regain a forward position. UTOPIA lacked a closing rally.

Won driving; second and third the same. PAPA FELIX worked his way uptn the Inside, came through between horses in the drive and was along in the final stride to nip ROYAL TOP. The latter drew into a long lead at once, was kept on a steady pace, saved ground and held on stubbornly under stout pressure. CLOSING NIGHT rallied mildly after six furlongs but was not good enough. VERIBEST moved to engage the leader and then faltered. JAKABLOM slipped through along the inside to challenge for command and weakened. HATTER WAR was never a serious factor. CHAIN TONGS weakened after forcing the pace. THE LUCKY SON was through early. Scratched 20905 Rampageous, 107; 21214 Star Band, 107; 209004 Caress, 105. Overweight Royal Top, 3 pounds; Jakablom, 5.
