Bandini quickly leaped to the lead at the start of the Skip Away and led wire to wire, winning by 1 1/4 lengths.

Winning trainer Todd Pletcher said, "This horse has matured quite a bit from last year. He's made progress every step of the way and that performance was pretty much what we were hoping for. He was able to get to the front and do what we expected. We'll point for the Met Mile, that's been the plan."
