Starter Optional Claiming

Chart notes

UNDECODED came in just after the start, settled off the pace three wide, closer turning for home, altered course to the outside for room past the furlong marker, late surge to be narrowly up at the wire. IPSUM GRATUS bumped at the start, recovered to race forwardly along the inside, boxed in far turn, got through and challenged entering the stretch, took over, clear a furlong out, nailed. XYLOPHONE void of speed, began to move far turn, came five wide for the drive, finished willingly to miss between horses at the wire. CLOSE TO ME steadied just after the start in tight, trailed well back, swung five wide for the drive, was going well late while widest of the first flight, too late. FIRST EMPRESS lacked speed while four wide through the first turn, continued well out in the strip, four wide again in the second bend, went evenly through the lane in lacking a closing punch. HOPING FOR A RING fractious gate, bothered soon after the break, saved ground first turn, continued inside, brief wait behind traffic late in the second turn, one paced along the rail stretch. DUCHESS BUBBLES lacked speed outside, three to four wide second turn, improved position slightly while not a serious threat. LEGENDARY GIFT forwardly placed while three wide, remained in striking position in that path through the second bend, faltered the final furlong. TRULY A ROCKET bumped at the start, settled in the second flight just off the inside, tired. DISTORTED SECRETS narrowly showed the way early, garnered a larger advantage in the second turn, caved when headed turning for home. BID FOR POWER came in just after the start, was straightened, dueled up front off the inside, stopped in the second turn, far back, jogged in.
