Summertime Oaks

Chart notes

WINDOW SHOPPING stalked between rivals early, coaxed through the far turn, angled in leaving the bend, tipped back out and bid between foes in upper stretch, raced on even terms into deep stretch and proved best late. ANCIENT PEACE hit the gate in the beginning, recovered quickly and went up dueled four then three wide around the clubhouse turn, put away THE ALYS LOOK at the five-sixteenths pole, jumped shadows approaching the quarter pole then met the challenge from DOINITTHEHARDWAY, turned that rival away into the stretch, pressured by a pair of rivals entering the final furlong, resisted to the sixteenth pole and yielded grudgingly late. LILY POO got crowded between rivals prior to the first turn, chased three wide around that bend at the back, was on the move three deep through the far turn, bid outside rivals in the lane, fought three deep into deep stretch and got outkicked by the top pair. ANYWHO broke a step slow, tracked four wide early, remained four wide into the lane and lacked a rally. DOINITTHEHARDWAY broke well then stalked three deep, bid three then two wide with a quarter mile left to run, failed to sustain the challenge into the stretch, suffered a mild shuffle in upper stretch but was already starting to weaken and flattened in the late stages. THE ALYS LOOK dueled for command from inside, could not keep pace with the leader at the five-sixteenths pole, lost positions into the stretch and weakened. AND TELL ME NOLIES got put in a bit tight then altered inward prior to the first turn, stalked from inside, got blocked on the far turn, tipped two wide near the quarter pole and failed to rally.
