Maiden Special Weight

Chart notes

SLIME QUEEN drifted in just after the start, saved ground on the first turn, settled off the rail at the rear on the backstretch, went three then four wide on the far turn, swung six wide into the stretch, rallied on the far outside under the whip, closed strongly to get the lead into the final sixteenth and prevailed under strong handling. TAKE CHARGE PATTI was taken in hand early, went around the first turn in the two path, tugged hard at the bit under stout restraint onto the backstretch, was rated just off the pace, raced inside for most of the far turn then shifted to the two path, shifted three wide into the stretch then was put to a drive, took the lead inside the furlong marker, led to the sixteenth-pole then was overtaken while able to get the place. CEANT went three wide under tight restraint on the first turn, stalked the pace on the outside, vied in the two path on the far turn, was asked at the quarter-pole then came under the whip in upper stretch, dropped back into the final furlong and was out-kicked while able to get the show. CHICK BE QUICK went to the front, set the pace on the inside, was asked at the quarter-pole then came under a drive in upper stretch, lost the lead to the runner-up inside the furlong marker and weakened. IT'S MINE rounded the first turn in the two path, settled on the outside, gained four wide on the far turn then was driven five wide into upper stretch. held a reasonable striking position into the final furlong but flattened out. SAIL ON ELLEN was taken in hand early, traveled around the first turn in the two path, was reserved off the pace, rounded the far turn in the two path, was asked at the five-sixteenths then steadied briefly off heels while unable to go between horses, came under a drive in upper stretch and lacked the needed response. SIMPLY BEGUILED went four wide on the first turn, settled on the outside, was urged three wide on the far turn then came four wide into the stretch and tired.
