Maiden Optional Claiming

Chart notes

LITTLE TEDDY was bumped by inside foe on the start, travelled on the outside in mid-pack down the backside, was nudged circling around horses four wide three furlongs from home, pounced to the lead in the four path straightening out for the drive and drew off comfortably in deep stretch. ROYAL RIBBON settled in the third flight all alone with three furlongs from the finish, edged closer on the fence through the turn, angled outside with run in the five path in mid-stretch and closed belatedly to get for second at the wire. MAGICAL TRICK broke out bumping rival on the start, stalked near the back in the beginning, rallied four wide with three eighths remaining, was in the hunt behind the winner in the four path turning for home, continued to fight on down the stretch and gave way late losing the duel for place. SWEET CHARLIZE kept a close eye on the contesting duo down the backside, waited behind the front twosome around the bend, found a clear path to run at the furlong pole and rallied late to get up for a minor role at the finish line. MOMUNNYFOR RO tracked the front pair three wide between foes at the three furlong marker, could not match strides with the winner to her outside at the quarter pole, chased in vain down the stretch and weakened in the last sixteenth. PRIMA veered out on the break, stalked four wide near the back in the beginning, offered a mild run two wide midway on the turn, was in the mix with a chance for share just behind the winner at the top of the stretch but stalled in the final furlong. FEDOROVA had a good spot early on watching the contesting duo down the backside, was roused for more three eighths from the wire, could not accelerate with rivals on the turn and ran on evenly to the wire. SPEED INTHE FOREST stumbled on the break, recovered quickly to lead by a slim margin outside down the backside, battled outside up top through the turn, was collared outside by many runners at the quarter pole and backed away on the fence at the furlong marker. DAISYCREST travelled on the rail in midfield, was urged inside three eighths from the wire, offered little response, swung outside in the seven path turning for home but could not get involved down the stretch. SPEED LOADER was void of early speed having one beat along the backside, could not get interested around the bend and failed to menace down the stretch. KIKITSA hustled for the lead pressing the issue inside down the back straight, dueled inside through the turn up front, was swallowed up by rivals outside at the quarter pole and emptied out in upper stretch. ROHESE hopped up bumping inside rival at the start, trailed down the backside, still could see the field around the turn and never was a factor.
