Maiden Claiming

Chart notes

STRIKE A CHORD broke in on the start bumping fellow rival, was then hustled to take command outside with four furlongs remaining, opened up going around the turn, drifted out momentarily when urged left-handed in upper stretch, straightened out for the drive in the final eighth and pulled away again for the score. FEATHERWEIGHT broke sharp to have the early lead, was relegated to a chasing role inside at the half mile marker, continued to run after the loose pacesetter through the turn, edged closer by upper stretch to pose the only threat to the winner but was repelled in the final furlong. GET MY DRIFT broke out exchanging bumps with the outside foe on the start, was then briefly taken a hold of entering the backstretch, co-trailed on the outside by the half, had to be checked outside rivals into the turn, angled out widest in the six path for the drive and closed in to be a distant third under a troubled trip. SOUL JOURNEY travelled on the outside in mid-division down the backside, could not get into gear showing little interest three wide outside foes on the turn, angled out in the five path between runners at the top of the lane and finished up willingly for a minor role. LADIES RUM stalked between runners down the backstretch, was asked going into the turn trying to keep forward position, made little headway on the fence travelling around the oval, had nowhere to go, losing her path at the eighth pole and could not be a factor late. SWIFT RIVER was off a bit slow to begin, co-trailed on the inside mid-backstretch, improved on the rail into the turn, shifted out in the four path for the drive but wilted in the final furlong. GOINGTOARUBA tracked the top two in the early stages, was roused at the three eighths pole, maintaining position around the bend, began to shorten stride inside in upper stretch and folded at the furlong marker on the wrong lead to the wire. Copyright 2026 Equibase Company LLC.
