Maiden Claiming

Chart notes

CARIBBEAN KING stalked along the rail, took aim two wide at the quarter pole, drew alongside the leader leaving the far turn, cleared at the eighth pole and edged away. PRECISION STRIKE bobbled at the start, settled three deep then moved into the two path on the clubhouse turn, remained two wide through the second bend, swung five wide into the stretch and rallied for second. QUINTECENTS sprinted clear while racing keenly, steered over to the inside, controlled the pace to the far turn, challenged by CARIBBEAN KING into the stretch, yielded to that rival in upper stretch, kept on through the final furlong and lost second. GHOST COAST tracked the pace outside a rival, between runners at the quarter pole, asked right handed in the lane but could not summon the needed late kick. PINEHURST (IRE) tracked along the rail out of range, chased within striking distance on the fence entering the lane and could not produce a bid. GET KRAKEN took the first turn three then two wide and dropped back off the pace, saved ground through the far turn, angled out in upper stretch and improved position. SIX MAGPIES (IRE) raced keenly early before settling on the inside in mid-pack, continued off the pace through the far turn, had to alter six wide when a rival swung out leaving the bend and could not threaten in the furlong grounds. BIG JUANITO trailed on the inside through the first turn, continued on the fence then two wide into the lane and passed tired rivals. CHROME TO RICHES saved ground towards the rear, ridden along through the far turn and was never a factor. NOBEL GARY raced along the inside near the back, went outside a rival on the far turn, entered the lane three wide and failed to make an impact. FINALLY AN EDDIE stalked outside a rival, coaxed along on the far turn, chased three deep into the lane and retreated. PER RULING ECM2024-75 FROM HIWU, CARIBBEAN KING WAS DISQUALIFIED FROM 1st TO UNPLACED DUE TO A POSITIVE TEST.
