Winner Ch. m, by Rounders Dimitra, by Mahmoud, trained by H. Shillick; bred by Helis Stock Farm IN GATE 5:05. OFF AT 5:05 EASTERN DAYLIGHT TIME. Start good. Won driving; second and third the same. DOVER DOLL, unhurried when outrun early, was sent into closer contention leaving the final turn, replaced LITTLE HERMAN with a rush when ready inside the stretch and increased her advantage under intermittent pressure. LITTLE HERMAN raced SUPERUPPER into defeat to take command after a half mile, held sway to the stretch under steady rating, but was unable to be sternly persevered with through the final furlong when his rider lost his whip. BORDER SON failed to make up appreciable ground when hard hustled through the late stages. DUSTY DRIVE moved up menacingly entering the stretch, but faltered when punished. MUEZZIN, fractious at the post, came out for the drive, but was not good enough. COSMOS was unable to keep up. SUPERUPPER was through after six furlongs. MIDYEAR was outrun. Overweight Tar Queen, 4 pounds; Cosmos, 1; Count Cain, 2. I Attendance, 24,367; Total Mutuel Pool, ,961,705.
