KINGSTON, Jamaica – From the start of the seventh race at Caymanas Park, a 7 ½ furlongx non-winners of four Restricted Allowance contest, it was a duel involving Roy Rogers ridden by apprentice Raddesh Roman and Extruder with Orlando Foster doing the riding duties.

Roy Rogers was in front from the off but was consistently harassed by Extruder. Extruder took over with three furlongs to go. In the straight it was a dogged fight between the two with Roy Rogers, on the inside, picking up the pieces after being headed by Extruder and even with the space on the inside getting smaller and smaller, Roman did not give up and in the end won by three parts of a length.

Extruder was second and Fresh Cash third.

The winning time was 1:32.1.
