Rafael Bejarano and Joel Rosario, who figure to vie for the riding title here this summer, finished a half-length apart in Wednesday's sixth race, when the frontrunner Movie Duty ($6.20) held off a late threat from Word Association.
Movie Duty ran six furlongs in 1:10.21. Through Wednesday's sixth race, Rosario led the standings with 9 wins, two more than Bejarano. Both riders have had two wins on Wednesday, as has Martin Pedroza, who has four wins at the meeting.
Rosario ride Ferneley in the upcoming Wickerr Stakes, and Offlee Wild Boys in the eighth. Bejarano rides Riviera Cocktail in the seventh and Swiss Hero in the eighth.
