In the co-featured event, Pasultimatedelite N found cover nearing three-quarters and charged hard in the stretch to collar pacesetter Bontz N (Bilyl Dobson) and spring an 8-1 upset in 1:54.2. The favorite, Miss Irish Rose A (Larry Stalbaum), rallied for second over Bontz N.

Pasultimatedelite N, an 11-year-old daughter of Bettor’s Delight, won for the 10th time this season for owners Pat O’Brian and George Hartman.

Nerve Of Steel N cruised to an early lead and proved dominant in a 1:56.3 mile in his first start in claiming company since 2019. O’Brien owns the 8-year-old Art Official gelding.
