Maiden Special Weight

Chart notes

NORMANDY QUEEN took command early and led wide into the first turn before cutting over to the inside, showed the way up the backstretch, remained clear to the stretch, asked left then right handed in the furlong grounds and gamely prevailed. WELL FUNDED settled inside, roused into range on the far turn, tipped out and took aim at NORMANDY QUEEN in the lane, finished gamely to draw alongside the winner late but was not enough. PETITE ANGE raced in range from inside then two wide into the backstretch, traveled between foes on the far turn before angling four wide approaching the stretch, chased within striking distance at the furlong marker but flattened in deep stretch. ONE SUMMER DAY prominent early then had to take up when NORMANDY QUEEN angled inward at the seven-eighths pole, stalked from inside, roused at the quarter pole, tipped two wide leaving the bend and weakened. MIZZYAAN broke a step slow, trailed two wide into the first turn then moved out a bit around the bend, taken out wider in the middle stages, chased five deep at the quarter pole and offered a mild response to improve positions. FIRE BAN chased three deep around the first turn, remained outside rivals up the backstretch, had to pause in traffic four deep at the quarter pole, kept trying down the lane and improved placings. TAHITI ITI chased from the three path on the clubhouse turn, two then three wide on the second bend and could not make an impact. VIBEZ raced up close outside the leader while wide into the first turn then angled inward, closest in pursuit up the backstretch, roused at the three-eighths pole, spun three wide into the lane and faded. HYMNAL chased between rivals from the two path early, moved inside in the middle stages, found traffic at the five-sixteenths pole, hugged the rail to the stretch and failed to menace. SHE'S NO ANGEL traveled four then three deep out of range early, drew closer up the backstretch, asked three to four wide on the far turn and came up empty.
