- Afleet Alex is lingering in the back of the pack.
- Jeremy Rose has yet to make a move on him and he's running unstrongly.
- Giacomo leads but...
- Afleet Alex just ran right by Giacomo like he was standing still.
- Afleet Alex is opening up with a tremendous burst of energy. He's five lengths in the lead.
- A compelling outstanding performance by the plucky Afleet Alex. He won by six or seven lengths.
