Starter Handicap

Chart notes

BONDED rated outside a rival in a stalking spot, steadily progressed four wide to take aim on the leaders into the lane, leveled off when switching to his correct lead leaving the furlong grounds, collared IMAGINE IT ALL inside the sixteenth pole, kept on doggedly to gain a slim advantage in deep stretch then got the bob at the wire. IMAGINE IT ALL , reluctant to load, moved up widest to take over heading to the first turn, cleared and dropped in to set the pace, was joined by SEVILLE ROW mid way on the final turn, responded to firm asks and kicked back clear in upper stretch, drifted out maintaining the advantage past the furlong grounds, dug back in when confronted by the winner leaving the sixteenth marker, dueled valiantly inside that one but lost the bob. BOFFO KID steadied back off foes soon after the break, edged up three wide near the half, moved up five wide under a hustling ride in upper stretch and found his best stride in the final furlong to bridge the gap. SEVILLE ROW prompted in hand outside the leader, bid to challenge after six furlongs, forced the issue into the stretch, couldn't quite quicken past mid stretch then gave way grudgingly. THE LAST SCIP checked heading to the first turn, saved ground through the backstretch run, eased out past the five sixteenths, advanced between runners in mid stretch then continued with effort. NICK PAPAGIORGIO saved ground, eased out and raced in range in upper stretch but failed to seriously kick on. SOROLLA lagged far back, saved ground most of the way and offered a response through the lane. MINT GAME broke a bit slow, settled off the pace, raced four wide between rivals nearing the quarter pole, angled out but lacked a rally. BRILLIANT CHASE angled off the rail soon into the backstretch, moved up steadily while between rivals heading to the turn, chased under a hearty ride past the five sixteenths then faded. REMEMBERING WILBUR angled out early into the backstretch run, lost ground four to five wide from the far turn and came up empty. SIGMUND failed to menace. PRIDE OF PAYTON , forward inside early on, steadied off heels into the first turn, regrouped and stalked inside, gave hard pursuit past the five sixteenths and weakened. JACKSON MAN broke awkwardly, raced wide off the pace and lacked a rally. RUN ROCKY RUN lost ground four to six wide while outside rivals, moved up some past the three eighths, chased to upper stretch then retreated.
