Chart notes

CUSTOM COMEDY set the pace inside of a vying rival around the turn, dueled with that one through midstretch, inched ahead entering the final sixteenth and found the wire in time. CAROLINA JACY lunged inwardly and was off slow at the start, laid off of the pace in the three path, shifted to the five path entering the lane, floated further to the seven path in upper stretch before unleashing a good kick in the final furlong, surged up to the leaders to bid a the wire but narrowly ran out of ground. BRIELLE EVANGELINE prompted three wide, bid and vied outside of the leader while taking the turn in the three path, dueled through midstretch, but failed to maintain even terms with a sixteenth to go and got nailed for place. NICELY UNIFIED stalked along the inside, drifted out to the five path in upper stretch while pursuing the top pair and chased evenly through the final furlong. STRUMMIN MARY lacked speed along the inside, shifted out nearing the lane, then improved position while shifting inwardly on her left lead. MY SUGAR FIX pressed two wide and between horses, chased the top pair around the turn, shifted outside of them entering the lane, then gave way while hanging on her left tlead. HOT GOLDEN GIRL chased from midpack in the three to four path before fanning to the six path entering the lane, then weakened while drifting inwardly. JAZZ JAZZ JAZZ laid off of the pace along the inside and faded. AVIE J got rank while breaking slowly, then was outrun in the four to five path.
