A breathtaking finish concluded the fifth race of this third meeting.

Indeed, the judges had to resort to the photo finish to decide upon who of Casey's War and Bastille Day, two of the horses that made the strongest impression in parade ring prior to the race, had won it. Ultimately, it is the former who came out on top by the tiniest of margins.

Pablo and Shutterfly finished 3rd and 4th respectively.

The 1400m-race was run in 1 min 24.58 secs.
