Maiden Special Weight

Chart notes

BUBBA BOB broke sharply, was urged along the rail dictating the pace on a narrow advantage to the first turn, dueled inside foes through the backstretch into the far turn, edged forward nearing midstretch and held sway on a safe margin to the end under firm handling. LORING PARK came through close quarters at the start, then angled to the inside early, tracked just off the pacesetter along the rail to upper stretch and continued to advance inside that rival to edge a rival for the place honors in the closing stages. FEEDING FRENZY, forwardly placed three wide tracking just off the leaders into the first turn, pressed the issue outside foes to the second bend, shifted in bidding for command nearing upper stretch but couldn't match terms with the winner late. SR. BOM BON switched outside the leaders early tracking off the second flight, made some brief progress three deep racing into the far turn but flattened out leaving midstretch. MACHO RAPIDO worked his way to the inside early dropping well off the second flight, saved ground to the lane and steadily improved his position. STAY MY FAYVORITE, urged prompting the pace between foes from the outset to the far turn, gave way nearing the lane. LAST MARTINI, off slowly, was held up along the inside early and failed to menace. GUN WAR angled inwards to gain a position just off the first flight racing into the first turn, was steadied out of tight quarters midway through that bend, tracked just off the leaders between foes to the far turn and steadily faded nearing the lane. OUT RUN'M settled outside foes to the backstretch and never gained contention. COLONEL GRAY, caught in tight quarters at the start, dropped out early.
