Fearless Move sat a wide third for the first half mile of the seven-furlong contest. Around the turn for home, he made a move that took him from third to first in a little over a quarter mile. From there it was just a matter of margin. He quickly pulled away by two, but Nolo Contendere cut into that lead with a big move that got him up for second by a length.
Complete Order of Finish:
1 Fearless Move (Asgar) Stalked the pace and took the lead in the stretch to win by a length.
2 Nolo Contendere (Riggins Racing) Came from mid-pack with a late move for second.
3 Afar (D J C Racing Stables) Came from off the pace for third.
4 Grandest Lady (La Canada Racehorses) Trailed early, made a late move for fourth.
5 Break From Holly (Nakamura Stables) Steady mid-pack run for fifth.
6 Wicked Ride (High Voltage) Led early, faded badly to finish sixth.
7 Ponderosa (Smokey Stover) Never a factor.
8 Chateau Margaux (Mo Mentum Farm) Never a factor.
9 Lady Narloff (TwinTowersRacing) Second early, faded to last.
Fearless Move was bred in CAL by Alydar Stables. The four-year-old daughter of Moving Around x Fearless Cara (Fear The Tree) has won six of her fifteen starts. Her career earnings stand at $341.080. Congratulations to Fearless Move and Asgar!
