Maiden Special Weight

Chart notes

CRYSTAL VISIONS was reined back off the early pace, tracked contently on the rail watching the lead pair down the backside and throughout the turn, pounced when asked at the quarter pole, shifted outside, three wide at the top of the lane, was encouraged left handed in upper stretch and drew away convincingly under a vigorous ride to the finish line. MCGILL stalked four deep outside foes near the rear in the beginning, started to smartly pick up runners three wide on the outside at the three furlong pole, continued to steadily go by rivals through the turn, angled out six wide straightening out in the lane, continued the long sustained rally and held for the place share at the wire. SKYLIGHT CAPER travelled in mid-division early, was shuffled back a touch at the half, was roused at the quarter pole outside only ahead of one rival, angled out in the seven path at the top of the lane, was full of run moving very strong in deep stretch and closed in to capture the show award. MISS DEMANDING travelled on the fence in midfield down the backside, stalked in the third flight keeping pace inside around the bend, was in range for a share of the prize in upper stretch on the fence and finished up willingly for a minor role. SAPPHIRE CONNECT tracked the front pair outside down the back straight, moved in, closing the gap on the leaders while in hand through the turn, posed a threat five wide at the top of the stretch but could not find more and levelled off in the last seventy yards. XARABELLA broke in at the start, co-trailed on the inside down the backstretch, took the short way around the turn, inching up on the fence, shifted out to the four path straightening out for home, dove back in to the rail by mid-stretch and finished up evenly to the wire. JUST LIKE THAT spurted away for the lead at the start, set the pace with only mild pressure applied by an outside challenger down the backside, kept travelling comfortably up front throughout the turn, put away the pace foe by the quarter pole, had little left for the drive though and weakened in the final seventy yards. BRIGHT SUNSHINE was off a step slow to begin, co-trailed on the outside in the backstretch, was alone in last by the half, started to go past runners three wide at the five sixteenths pole, angled out widest in the eight path turning for home and passed some rivals in mid-stretch. OUTFORARIP travelled in mid-pack outside foes at the half, settled in the third flight still outside horses around the bend, was roused midturn, had little to offer and retreated in upper stretch. CREVALLE ROYALE stalked inside a foes in the three path near the rear in the beginning, had to be geared down briefly when stuck behind a weakening rival at the seven sixteenths marker, losing her momentum, showed no interest saving ground through the turn to trail by the quarter pole and could not get into contention on the fence down the stretch. FANNY M prompted the pace outside down the back straight, could only put mild pressure when chasing the frontrunner around the bend, had nothing left to give for the drive and folded in the four path at the furlong marker.
