The last race of the afternoon was the $75,000 Lure Stakes for older horses at 1 mile on the turf. 5-2 favorite Drum Major stalked the pace of 59-1 outsider Bob's Proud Moment through a half in 46.92, then slipped through along the inside to gain a 1 1/2 length advantage at the 1/8 pole, then easily held off 4-1 second choice Rebel Rebel to prevail by 1 3/4 lengths in a time of 1:32.67. Triple Crown veteran and 9-2 shot Sir Shackleton was unhurried early but had nothing for the stretch run, disappointing in sixth.
