Sir Caviar controlled the early fractions but was challenged down the backside by Triumphant Caviar. Rembrandt Spur saved ground and energy along the pylons, then brushed inside for trainer-driver Dick Stillings to score in 1:56 over a track rated “good.” Triumphant Caviar was second, a head back, while Sir Caviar saved show despite a late break.
Roy Davis owns Rembrandt Spur, a four-year-old Pegasus Spur-Marty E gelding, who holds or shares four Meadows’ track records and extended his career bankroll to $334,528.
Dave Palone drove five winners on the 15-race card.
