Harpers First Ride came in off a late June victory in a one and one-six- teenth mile allowance at Pimlico (which incidentally Deputed Testamony still holds the track record of 1:40.80 for the distance), his first win in five starts since January. He broke quickly to the front and found his place along the rail as he led five rivals through an opening quarter-mile in a dawdling :25.38.
