Maiden Claiming

Chart notes

GIRL DYNAMITE was in just a hair tight after the start, shifted in and advanced about in the three to four path, chased the leading pair into the turn, advanced on those willingly, was put to urging past the quarter pole, floated seven wide into upper stretch, struck the lead by mid-stretch, forged clear while being kept to the task. MISS C BANKER pressed the pacesetter from the outset well clear of the rest of the field, was joined by the eventual winner to the outside turning for home, drifted out six wide and took a narrow brief lead in upper stretch, could not kick on with the winner but was clearly second best. LOOP OF HENLE was a bit fractious behind the gate, bumped with rivals at the start, settled into stride toward the back off the inside, advanced on the turn two to three wide, continued to gain near inside through the stretch. JENN SWEET JENN exchanged bumps between foes at the start, still managed to get forward position, chased four wide into the turn leading the second group, swung six deep turning for home, needed more late. LUCKY FLAY set a pressured pace just off the rail and hounded throughout, was overtaken at the top of the stretch, weakened in the lane. DREAMING OF NANA broke a step slowly and was squeezed back, lacked early speed, raced mostly four to five wide and improved in the stretch. TO MUCH STYLE broke inwardly exchanging a few bumps, chased five wide into the turn, shifted in a bit on that bend, failed to rally in the stretch. PRINCESS MIA raced wide throughout outside foes six to eigth deep and failed to menace. CASH DUE bumped a rival lightly at the start, shifted in, raced on or just off the rail on the turn and into the stretch, was not a threat. MACA ABARRIO broke just the tiniest bit awkwardly, saved ground through the turn to no avail. WINE SCHOLAR tucked in going four to three wide on the turn and well back of the leaders, was not a factor.
