In the backstretch, he took Spectacular Bid to the outside, avoiding the tight traffic near the rail. When Flying Paster moved up inside on the far turn, Franklin held his ground. Spectacular Bid looked Flying Paster right in the eye and then went to work. As they swung into the home stretch, Franklin and Spectacular Bid were free and clear.
