Breaktime Hanover grabbed the early lead from post seven, but found himself shuffled to third at the three-quarters. The 6-year-old Somebeachsomewhere-Best Chance Hanna gelding surged when Ronnie Wrenn Jr. pointed him inside and scored in 1:53.1. Statham N was second, a half length back, with the first-over Bit Ofa Tiger N third.

Ron Burke trains Breaktime Hanover, who lifted his career bankroll to $175,337, for the Burke Racing Stable and Weaver Bruscemi LLC.
