Ridden by Paco Lopez, Mo Forza finished three-quarters of a length in front of 5-1 Neptune's Storm, who was a half-length clear of 7-1 Standard Deviation.
Digital Age finished fourth, followed by Succeedandsurpass, Originaire, Proud Pedro, Henley's Joy, Nolde, Mr Dumas, Moody Jim and Uncle Bull.
Mo Forza, who was favored, ran 1 1-8 miles on turf in 1:48.57 on a good course for trainer Peter Miller and owners Bardy Farm and OG Boss.
Mo Forza, a colt by Uncle Mo, won a maiden race on turf in his sixth start at SAnta Anita on Sept. 29 and his stakes debut in the Grade 2 Twilight Derby at Santa Anita on Nov. 2.
