Starter Handicap

Chart notes

WELL SPENT broke out then hit the gate and stumbled awkwardly, recovered to race just off the pace under restraint, drafted inside around the turn, was asked while cutting the corner into the stretch then hugged the fence while making a brave bid inside of three opponents at the three-sixteenths, was driven through under a strong-hand ride to take the lead into the final furlong, shook clear under two pops of a right-handed crop outside the sixteenth-pole then was placed back under a brisk hand-ride to the wire while best. MIA BEA STAR dropped back after the start then settled at the rear, went two then three wide around the turn, was roused outside the quarter-pole, swung five wide into upper stretch then gained into contention, made a brief bid while outside into the final furlong but proved no match for the winner while willingly able to secure the place. INDIAN BELLA tracked the pace down the backstretch, was asked outside the seven-sixteenths, made a bid under urging in the three path on the turn, vied between foes from the three-eighths, turned into upper stretch under a drive while still between horses, continued to battle between rivals into the final furlong then weakened while clear for the show. CUSTOMEREXPERIENCE settled nicely on the outside, ranged up four wide to make a bid midway through the turn, gained a short lead under a drive into upper stretch, lost the advantage to the winner into the final furlong and tired. NEW YORK BANKER went to the front, showed the way while off the rail, was challenged while in the two path on the turn, came under increased urging outside the quarter-pole, lost the advantage while between foes in upper stretch, dropped back between rivals into the final furlong and gave way.
