Maiden Special Weight

Chart notes

PRAYER OF JABEZ was hustled leaving the break and was forwardly placed into the turn, kept close attendance to the pace through the turn, overtook the pacesetter while in hand at the top of the lane, kicked clear into the final sixteenth and held safely in the end over the oncoming runner-up. AROLLERCOASTERRIDE took back off of the early pace, was two wide along the turn while unhurried, advanced in upper stretch under steady urging, came on in the final sixteenth to challenge the winner and secured the place in the final stages. ALWAYS LITT stalked the early pace, improved position on the turn, made a two wide bid into the drive, vied for the lead nearing the furlong marker, was outkicked in the final sixteenth but was well clear for third. HAVAKASH READY was sent along leaving the break and showed good early speed while setting solid fractions, was confronted by the winner in upper stretch, met that bid and stayed on into the final furlong but weakened in the late stages. RETIREMENT MISSION chased from midflight and did not mount a late rally. CARDIFF CRACK chased the early pace, advanced while three wide on the turn and did not have a late kick in the drive. STAN THE HOT MAN broke a step slow, shied when RETIREMENT MISSION drifted into his path, then steadied when I CAN'T HEAR YOU drifted in front of him, swung widest into the stretch, lost touch with the field but did manage to pass a few while under a steady drive throughout. HUNTERS GHOST was unable to keep up early, asked to keep up by her rider passing the half but lacked any kind of response. RING GENERAL mid-pack and five-wide in the early going, remained wide and was slow to quicken when asked and tired in the late stages. I CAN'T HEAR YOU away well from the rail, attended the early pace to challenge HAVAKASH READY, then was steadied passing the half-mile pole, attempted to re-engage but began a steady fade from there.
