Racing from off the tempo, Barnaby effortlessly swept previous his rivals, asserting his dominance over the seven-and-a-half-furlong (1,500m) distance.

Because the beginning gates burst open, Barnaby settled into a cushty rhythm, permitting his rivals to set the early tempo. However as the sector approached the ultimate flip, Foster expertly guided Barnaby to the skin, the place he unleashed a devastating burst of velocity that carried him to victory.
Two-time Horse of the Yr Atomica (Dane Dawkins), who took management of the race going into the half-mile (800m) and opened up rivals approaching the space, couldn’t stand up to the late surge from
Barnaby and needed to accept second. California Crown (Ismael Velasquez) completed third.
It was the second winner on the day for Nunes, who saddled Allegiance (Reyan Lewis) within the earlier race.
Additionally with two winners was jockey Javaniel Patterson. Patterson received aboard Superior Anthony within the third race for coach Patrick Taylor and Storm Valley within the fifth race for coach Edward Walker.
