After rocking horse fractions that saw Cacique and Edgar Prado trade the lead with English Channel and John Velazquez through the first six furlongs in 1:16.66, the real racing started as the field turned for home. Cacique grabbed the lead at the turn (photo above) and as the field reached the wire four horses finished within a half length. Cacique managed to gain a head victory over the fast closing Relaxed Gesture and Kent Desormeaux (photo below). The five-year-old bay Juddmonte color bearer is trained by Bobby Frankel.
