Race Comments: LOOKIN AT LUCKY bobbled at the break, was eased off the rail in the early stages, stalked outside rivals, bid three wide entering the far turn, battled heads apart with SUPER SAVER passing the quarter pole, quickly spurted clear when asked at the top of the lane and widened under urging. TRAPPE SHOT raced off the rail early on, then tracked inside, moved up between rivals on the turn, briefly waited for room passing the quarter, swung out four wide turning for home and finished well outside. FIRST DUDE set the pace on the inside, could not go with the top two midway on the far turn, battled back inside late and got the nod for third. SUPER SAVER stumbled at the start, stalked three wide, bid between rivals on the far turn, dueled with the winner approaching the stretch, weakened and just missed for the show. AFLEET AGAIN raced off the pace inside, moved off the rail on the backside, bid four wide on the far turn, came five wide into the lane and flattened out. ICE BOX hit the gate off a step slow, was content to trail, came wide into the lane and lacked a serious rally. OUR DARK KNIGHT bobbled slightly at the break, pressed the pace between rivals, raced inside on the far turn and tired.
