Maiden Claiming

Chart notes

HENSON bobbled at the break, dueled early from the three path with KERN RIVER to his inside, shook off that rival near the seven-sixteenths and tucked to the two path to show the way in sole command, swung four wide into upper stretch coming under challenge to the inside, got roused with three-sixteenths to run, repelled the bid from the runner up and inched clear inside the final sixteenth to prevail. OKALOOSA broke out at the start, chased three then two wide coming under coaxing at the five-sixteenths, spun just off the inside into upper stretch, offered up a bid challenging for the front a furlong out, got repelled by the top one and ran on well clear of the rest to secure the place honors. KERN RIVER hustled from the gate, dueled from the two path with HENSON to his outside, tucked inside and gave chase through the turn, spun two to three wide for home and stayed on one paced to the finish to preserve the show honors. SPOOFY four then three wide in pursuit, came under coaxing at the five-sixteenths, angled five wide into upper stretch, weakened in the late stages. BLUE PLATE SPECIAL broke out at the start bumping PETROLO, chased four then three wide coming under coaxing at the three-eighths, swung five wide into upper stretch, made no headway through the final furlong. PETROLO got bumped at the start by BLUE PLATE SPECIAL, who broke outwards, chased six then five wide coming under coaxing at the three-eighths, went eight to nine wide into upper stretch and made no late headway. MAJESTIC ARC three wide in pursuit, came under coaxing at the three-eighths, went five wide into upper stretch and tired. HERONEANDONLY lost his footing at the start, chased just off the inside coming under coaxing at the three-eighths, swung four wide into upper stretch and tired. IMPULSIVE SPENDING coaxed from the start, chased along the inside coming under coaxing at the seven-sixteenths, continued in the inside route into upper stretch and tired. SOMAMA BEACH coaxed from the gate, chased five then four wide coming under coaxing at the three-eighths, went six to seven wide into upper stretch and tired. ONOFRIO broke sluggish from the gate and quickly grew detached at the tail of the field while just off the inside, went two to three wide through the turn continuing to lose ground, cornered four to five wide into upper stretch well behind the rest and distanced and trailed throughout, then walked off under his own power.
