With Fernando De La Cruz up, Pearl Tiara pressed the pace and took over a half-mile in before continuing to draw away for an 8 3/4-length victory. She completed 1 1/16 miles on the fast main track in 1:45.60.

Samuel Bermudez rode the gelding for trainer Lonnie Hinds and settled his mount in fifth early. Hard Luck Justice began to rally past the three-eighths pole and opened up to win by 6 1/4 lengths. The final time for the 1 1/16 miles on the fast main track was 1:46.24.
