3-ALWAYS A TIGER...spent every step of last mile on the outside looking in. Does very well drawing inside.

RACE TEN DOUBLE - 5-9, 6-9, 7-9
6-TERANADAWN..wasn’t able to use customary gate speed in last (8 post) but still showed solid pace late.
7-SILVER SPIR...pulled under the wire first time and started grinding but :27.3 3rd panel cooked his goose.
5-PRINCE JUBILEE...all recent lines last 2 months have been decent. Doesn’t win often but hits the ticket.

9-FAST BILL...outside post, yes, but showed good pace while double-bubbled in last & dips down to low rung.
6-HILLBILLY KID...loves to be in the thick of things from the get-go. Just needs softer panels to be high up.

1-BURNT ON TOP...post hurt in last but showed decent backside pace...Just too much traffic to do damage.
