Maiden Claiming

Chart notes

REGALO PERFETTO stalked the pace outside a rival, moved up to engage the leader nearing the quarter pole, gained a slim lead between foes near the three sixteenths, dueled on near even terms and to the inside of GORDITO through the final furlong, kept on tenaciously under strong handling and held firm. GORDITO exchanged a light bump with an inner foe leaving the gate, gained a stalking position towards the inner rail, edged up leaving the far turn, shifted out into the lane, bid three deep, battled on near even terms from mid stretch to late but hung through the final yards. IMPERIAL SPY settled off the inside, raced between runners into the far turn, picked things up when called upon and circled four wide into the stretch, remained on his left lead to late and slowly gained. ALL FRUITS RIPE rated off the pace, raced between rivals leaving the five sixteenths, shifted in to about the two path for the drive and churned on. STORM FORCE , four wide into the first turn, raced within range leaving the far turn, chased outside a rival into the stretch but came up empty in the final furlong. FIERY DEBUT , off the pace, saved ground into far turn, worked outward in the drive and had belated action between foes. ROCK BULLET , bumped at the break, was squeezed back soon after, settled well off the pace, raced four wide and to the inside of a runner into the lane then had a mild kick. WHITE BLUE , bumped at the break, was lightly steadied early and failed to menace. ROYAL FLUSH HEARTS sped clear early, set a sharp pace inside, was taken on past the five sixteenths, fought on to about mid stretch then weakened. KEVIN OF BLACKROCK broke outward bumping ROCK BULLET, corrected and edged up inside to stalk, was under a ride pursuing past the three eighths, failed to go on soon into the stretch and retreated through the final three sixteenths.
