Maiden Special Weight

Chart notes

LIBERAL ARTS stalked four wide, ranged up in pursuit of the new leader entering the lane, bid outside of that one approaching midstretch, sparred through the final furlong and edged a margin late. OTTO THE CONQUEROR prompted the pace two wide and between horses, vied with the inner pace-setter into the turn, led turning for home, dug in while embracing an outer challenge nearing the furlong grounds, battled gamely into deep stretch, but was bested late. ALLIED VICTORY laid off of the pace in the three to four path, grinded away on her left lead in the five path in upper stretch, changed over while producing a bid for show at the sixteenth pole and prevailed between horses at the wire. LEAD FOOT laid off of the pace in the two to three path, fanned to the six path entering the lane, delayed changing leads until the furlong grounds, then stayed on outside of rivals but missed reaching show. COLLINS bumped an outer rival before having that one clip his hind heels soon after the start, set a pressured pace along the inside, got headed by at the five sixteenths pole, gave way to the top pair in midstretch and lost show late. B WAYNE lacked speed in the five to seven path, shifted inwardly in midstretch and lacked a bid. BRIAN pressed three wide and between horses into the turn, but chased those foes turning for home before yielding. WARP NINE lacked speed along the inside, paused behind traffic at the quarter pole, shifted out between horses in upper stretch and failed to factor. NEW BERN took contact from rivals on both sides, floated in behind his inner counterpart and clipped that one's heels in the aftermath, then trailed in the two path around the turn before surpassing tired rivals. GOTTANEEDFORSPEED tracked along the inside, chased around the turn and weakened. NUEVO AMANECER bumped an inner rival at the start, tracked two wide and weakened between horses turning for home.
