Turning for home they were 3 abreast but Simon Got Luckey had a full head of steam and fresh legs was able to get by the 2 tired pace setter to get up for the win in 2:01.3- $96.08  for trainer Robert Lounsbury. Despite being parked, the majority of the mile LP Savage still held on for second place.
