SPELLBINDER had good early speed and dueled inside, fought back on the second turn, could not match the winner in the stretch but held second. DIXIE MEISTER three deep into the first turn, chased off the rail, came a bit wide into the stretch and bested the others. KEEP ON PUNCHING between foes early, prompted the pace outside the runner-up, was between horses into the stretch and weakened. GALLARDO four wide into the first turn, settled off the inside chasing the pace, angled in some on the second turn, came out into the stretch and did not rally.
