GAMING (c, 2, Game Winner–So Stylish {SP-Ire}, by Johannesburg) came out running as the 2-1 favorite but took pressure to the outside into the far turn. As Arrakis (Bernardini) dropped out of it, Gaming kicked for home and outran the field, going gate to wire to win by 5 1/2 lengths over Rank (Honor A.P.). The second winner for his freshman sire (by Candy Ride {Arg}), Gaming was a $250,000 OBS March buy for the Three Amigos.
