Chart notes

REGAL RUMOR broke well then tracked four to five wide down the straight, ranged up four wide near the quarter pole to bid for the lead then responded when set down in the stretch, fought a ding-dong battle with DULCIA to the wire and got the bob in the last jump. DULCIA got away well, stalked four wide down the backstretch then three wide though the turn, hooked up with REGAL RUMOR turning for home and battled gamely on the rail but came up on the short end of the photo. CHANGE IT UP got crowded by MY BOY VANDER after the start then raced near the back to the turn, angled out to the four or five path for the stretch run and finished with good energy, closing well under urging but came up a bit short. ARSONIST tracked on the outside of the second group through the early stages then responded when put into a drive approaching the seven-sixteenths pole, advanced three wide through the turn and ran on with some interest down the stretch but could not find a winning kick and was outfinished for a minor award. MILLIE G was briefly up close between horses then dropped off the pace and well behind the rest before going a furlong, launched a rally on the turn while saving all the ground, was still last at the eighth pole but surged under strong handling and almost got there. DAZZLING DUCHESS raced between horses in the second flight, held position to the turn then came under a drive from the five-sixteenths pole but was unable to improve in the stretch. DIAMOND EMPRESS hustled from the break and seized the early lead while being pressed inside by MY BOY VANDER, kicked away passing the three furlong pole then was beset by challengers at the top of the stretch, could not push back and faded in the late stages. MY BOY VANDER came away well and pressed DIAMOND EMPRESS on the lead from the inside, waited until the quarter pole to launch a bid while that rival opened up on the field, loomed as the field turned for home then checked in traffic at the three-sixteenths, lost momentum and could not recover.
