Chart notes

VENTI VALENTINE raced just off the inside through the first turn, chased three wide down the backstretch and into the far turn, tipped four wide at the three-eighths and advanced on the front stacked outside a trio with five-sixteenths to go, took over command outside the quarter pole and swung three wide into upper stretch, dug in under a drive coming under challenge inside the final furlong along her inside and dug in gamely to prevail by a nostril on the wire. STERLING SILVER bobbled at the break and was bumped by AMANDA'S FOLLY, who broke outwards, raced along the inside through the first turn before chasing just off the inside down the backstretch and to the midway point on the far turn, tipped out three wide floating AMANDA'S FOLLY four wide inside the five-sixteenths, swung three wide into upper stretch and angled in to the two path at the three-sixteenths, rallied up the inside to issue a challenge nearing the sixteenth marker, dug in head to head and just missed at the finish. AMANDA'S FOLLY broke out at the start bumping STERLING SILVER, chased just off the inside until tipped three wide nearing the three-eighths placed to coaxing, got floated out four wide inside the five-sixteenths when STERLING SILVER tipped out to the three path to her inside, continued four wide into upper stretch, dug in under a drive and weakened in the final furlong while clear for the show honors. BON ADIEU coaxed from the gate, raced three wide into the first turn before tucking to the two path, dueled from the two path with SMOKIN' HOT KITTY to her inside down the backstretch and into the far turn, took brief and narrow command just inside the three-eighths marker when placed to urging, got headed for the front nearing the quarter pole and took the inside route into upper stretch, then weakened through to the finish. CALL HER BLUFF coaxed from the start, raced four wide into the first turn before going three wide through that bend, chased three wide in closest aim of the duel, advanced to stack outside that pair of rivals with three furlongs to go, came under encouragement at the five-sixteenths, spun just off the inside into upper stretch pausing very briefly in tight and then tired in the stretch. SMOKIN' HOT KITTY pushed along from the gate to establish the front, dueled inside of BON ADIEU through the first turn and down the backstretch, came under increased pressure midway on the far turn when joined by an additional pair and yielded the front inside the three-eighths, began to back track with five-sixteenths to go and took the inside route into upper stretch, then tired in the drive. Copyright 2026 Equibase Company LLC.
