Maiden Special Weight

Chart notes

CAIRO STREET pressed three wide, dueled with an inner rival into the final furlong, forged an advantage with a sixteenth to go, leaned inwardly and held. LUZ DIVINA prompted the pace two wide and between horses, led in upper stretch, dueled with his outer counterpart through the final furlong but was headed at the sixteenth pole and failed to regain even terms. BUTTERFLY QUEEN tracked in the two path, chased the top pair while gradually shifting outside of them at the furlong grounds and held show from an inner rival late. MISHKA broke a step slow then got rank from restraint in the early stages, lacked speed along the inside, fanned to the six path in upper stretch and rallied to gain fourth in the final furlong. AURACULOUS got rank while transferring contact from an inner rival to an outer foe into the first turn, laid off of the pace in the four to three path, then lacked a bid in the five path. LA SCALONETA laid off of the pace along the inside, then pursued evenly between horses while hanging on her left lead. PULA tracked in the four path, chased entering the lane then yielded between horses. SIMPLY STRIKING set the pace inside of a pair of pressers, but weakened in upper stretch. QUEEN LEXI broke slowly and never got involved. JOYFUL IMAGE hopped slightly while off a step slow, tracked along the inside but tired turning for home. SPIRITUAL LADY took contact rom an inner rival into the first turn, lacked speed in the five to three path shortly after, then drifted to the nine path in upper stretch and tired. EXTREMELY GRUNTLED got rank and bumped an outer rival into the first turn, continued keen in the three path and between horses around that bend, then was through entering the far turn.
