Race Summary

OFFLEE WILD was rated along inside, advanced inside on the second turn, took over when asked, drew away and widened under a drive. ROGUE AGENT quickly opened a clear lead, set the pace along the inside, was no match for the winner and stayed on to hold the place. CUBA was rated along inside, came three wide approaching the stretch and lacked a rally. COUNTRY BE GOLD dropped back early and had no response when roused. COAST LINE raced close up outside, chased the pace and tired in the stretch.
