Golden Ballet, with JB Hernandez on top, dictated the early tempo of the race and was never in trouble in posting a one-length victory worth P600,000 for owner Jun Almeda.
Golden Ballet, winner of the recent Marho Stakes Race also at Sta. Ana, covered the 1,600-m race in 1:43 with quartertimes of 24-25-25 1/2-29.
Finishing second in the 10-horse field was Art of Rose followed by Mighty Strong and Magical Mark. Second place was worth P225,000, third P125,000 and fourth P50,000. Ramon Romualdez
