BOLD KING trailed in the opening Jialf mile and weaved his way between horses with a strong belated bid. NINA PAL made the pace until the final turn and faltered slightly. FREE TOO had to be cautiously handled repeatedly to avoid the riderless horse. IN COMMAND tired, as did WILD JIMBO. OKAMSEL was bothered by the riderless horse on the back-stretch and failed to rally. TOP FORM stumbled and lost his rider leaving the gate. Overweight Nina Pal, 2 pounds; Free Too, 2. Attendance, 6,294; Total Mutuel Poor, 99,057.
