( Content Continues Below Ad ) King Fury broke from post 4 under Brian Hernandez Jr. as the 5/2 second choice and settled into a stalking trip while Franz Josef posted opening fractions of :24.60, :49.51, and 1:14.34. Sent three-wide heading into the far turn, King Fury outmuscled Super Stock for the lead in mid-stretch and denied the bettors’ choice, pulling ahead late to win by a 1/2-length. The Kenny McPeek trainee completed the 1 1/16-mile fast dirt route in 1:44.30.

Franz Josef and Crime Spree completed the order of finish. Eucharist was scratched.

The Curlin colt, purchased in August 2019 for $950,000, has now earned $116,979. “His last race at Keeneland was pretty puzzling because we thought he’d run a lot better than he did,” McPeek said. “I think the track ended up being pretty forward that day and his trip (four-wide throughout) didn’t really help things.” King Fury returned $7.40 to win, $3.40 to place, and $3 to show. Super Stock brought back $2.80 to place and $2.40 to show, while Oncoming Train paid $3 to show.
