Maiden Claiming

Chart notes

TIE BREAKER coaxed from the gate, chased five then four wide coming under coaxing at the five-sixteenths, swung five wide into upper stretch, took over command at the three-sixteenths and drew clear under a drive to prevail. VAUNTED grew a bit fractious in the gate prior to the start inspiring a brief and small rebellion from ALPHA SONNY and SIN NOMBRE soon after, broke out at the start bumping ALPHA SONNY into SIN NOMBRE, chased two to three wide coming under coaxing at the five-sixteenths, angled six wide into upper stretch, proved no match for the top one while running on to be along clear for the place honors. UNDER THE KNIFE broke in at the start bumping and forcing SIN NOMBRE to steady and alter briefly, chased four then three wide in aim of the leader, came under coaxing at the three-eighths, swung four wide into upper stretch and weakened in the late stages. SINALOA chased two to three wide under coaxing from the three-eighths, angled five to six wide into upper stretch, passed tired rivals. WOODSIDE WARRIOR hustled from the gate, chased along the inside coming under coaxing at the three-eighths, cut the corner into upper stretch, tipped out straightened away and weakened. THE GOLDEN ONE stumbled at the start conceding three to four lengths to the front before settling into stride, chased four then three wide under coaxing from the three-eighths, went seven wide into upper stretch and weakened. IMPULSIVE SPENDING chased four then three wide coming under coaxing at the three-eighths, swung four wide into upper stretch, weakened in the drive. STEERAGE hustled from the gate, showed the way in hand just off the inside until tucked inside through the turn and was placed to coaxing near the five-sixteenths, took the inside route into upper stretch under threat, yielded near the three-sixteenths and weakened to the finish. ALPHA SONNY grew fractious in the gate just after VAUNTED did and then inspired SIN NOMBRE to do so, got bumped at the start by VAUNTED and in turn bumped SIN NOMBRE, chased six to seven paths off the inside down the backstretch, tucked five wide through the turn, went seven wide into upper stretch and weakened. SIN NOMBRE grew fractious when inspired by ALPHA SONNY to do so as that rival got fractious just prior, got bumped and steadied at the start and altered outwards conceding four lengths to the front before settling into stride, chased eight to nine paths off the inside down the backstretch and then five wide through the turn, went nine wide into upper stretch and offered no kick. IT'S NOT MY FAULT three then two wide in closest aim of the leader, came under coaxing at the three-eighths, spun two to three wide for home, faded and faltered in the drive and was eased through the final furlong to the finish.
