Maiden Claiming

Chart notes

MOLLY OF STRATFORD in mid pack early off the inside, advanced three to four wide into a striking position turning for home, challenged when straightened for home, kicked well clear under steady handling. DANCE MY WAY in the main group while inside the winner, moved closer toward the inside in some traffic late turn, came three wide for the drive, no match for the winner late while persevering for the second spot. PLEASINGLY broke on top, narrowly set the pace inside, dueled out of the turn, proved stubborn for the runner up position. DIFFERENTLY pressed the issue up front along the inside, dueled into the lane, weakened through the lane. PINK CHIMES bit reluctant to load, lacked early foot, saved ground through the turn, improved inside of horses into the stretch, no real threat. BODI ODI one paced outside, four wide through the turn, lacked a significant closing response. LATIFAH within striking distance, three wide into the stretch, tired. BABAS GAL broke back, raced between horses far turn, came four wide for the drive, lacked a closing kick to finish up evenly. FIRST DIAMOND off a step slow, trailed for a half toward the inside, passed some tiring rivals after the issue had been decided. I BE GONE forwardly placed up the backstretch three wide and between horses, floated four wide into the lane, tired. COSMIC CHIC forwardly placed four wide, continued outside through the turn, gave way in the drive. BENT HALO broke through the gate, broke back, four wide late in the turn, remained back.
