CREW was slow, losing 1 to 2 lengths. TRIBAL GUARD was slow, losing one length. TRIPSWITCH was slow into stride. AT A PACE was pulling hard early, difficult to restrain and subsequently compounded in the straight. TOUGH TIGER raced wide into the straight. Jockey Lerena reported that JOHNNY CHESTNUT was not striding out freely in running and did not persevere with his mount in the latter stages. Apprentice Zackey reported that he felt something amiss with IRRAWADY and did not persevere with his mount in the latter stages. IRRAWADY raced with a tongue tie. Jockey Sampson reported that STRIKE A ROCK made a respiratory noise in running and did not persevere with his mount in the latter stages.

IRRAWADY - not striding out left front, no respiratory noise detected post race. STRIKE A ROCK - no respiratory noise detected post race. TOUGH TIGER - cut into right hind.
