Leaving from the rail, Somethingbeautiful left just enough to grab a pocket seat behind the pace-setting Something To Me and John DeLong through the opening quarter in :27.4. JK She’s Gordjus and Trace Tetrick wanted their turn on the front and got it just before the half in :57.2. JK She’s Gordjus continued to call the shots through the three-quarters in 1:25.2 but Somethingbeautiful was winding up to strike. Using a :26.4 final quarter, Somethingbeautiful was able to track down JK She’s Gordjus and repel a late surge from Something To Me to get the win by a length.
