Chart notes
PHOENICIAN GHOST was hustled to the front then dueled inside of K R RULES through the early stages, fought back when that rival tried to slip away on the turn, responded when set down in the stretch, finished well under steady handling and urging and won the bob at the line in a very tight finish. PASSION OF JOE'S tracked inside with the second flight, had to wait for running room on the turn then worked through an opening along the rail, got a head in front near the wire but got nailed at the wire in a tight finish. PEDAL TO THE METAL raced mid-pack well off the pace, made some forward progress through the turn then found a good rhythm in the stretch run, was rolling late and just missed in a blanket finish. FREEZE 'EM tracked two wide behind the duel, launched a bid from the five-sixteenths pole, came four wide into the stretch, finished with good energy but came up short. A LOT OF VERVE outrun from the break despite coaxing from the rider, lagged in the back of the field down the backstretch then made a mild late rally and was gaining late while never a serious threat. HE'S INIT TO WINIT raced mid-pack to the turn, made a mild middle move two to three wide through the turn then finished willingly but lacked a winning kick. K R RULES dueled two wide with PHOENICIAN GHOST through the early stages, gave way in upper stretch and tired. MAJESTIC CRAKEN lacked speed and raced near the back of the field, tried to rally three wide into the stretch but could not make an impact. Copyright 2026 Equibase Company LLC. All Rights Reserved.
