Maiden Claiming

Chart notes

FOURLEGSGOOD seized command from the onset just outside a rival along the backstretch, angled to the rail shaking clear at the three furlong pole, was headed outside with a quarter mile remaining, had a clear advantage when the pursuing rival missed the turn for home and cruised home for the front running score in the final furlong. BIG LEW stalked on the rail in the early stages, shifted just off the fence to commence a run between challengers at the three furlong pole, progressed smartly on runners with a quarter mile from the wire, stayed on the left lead to the finish line, could not threaten the winner late but ran on well to safely best the rest for the runners up share in the end. REGGIE BOY stalked near the rear outside foes, began to pick up the bit three wide with five sixteenths still to run, surged between rivals in the five path straightening out for home and dug in late at the wire to capture the show money. YODDHA was brushed outside on the break, settled between horses in the second flight in the early going, was urged right handed to go after the lead twosome with a quarter mile remaining, dueled for a piece of the prize in the three path in mid-stretch and finished up mildly in the last furlong for a minor role in the end. LIVININTHEFASTLANE was nudged early on to secure rail position in the second flight at the half, could not keep up to others making an outside move midway around the bend and finished up evenly on the fence in the stretch running. ADMIRAL NELSON pressed the pace on the rail down the back straight, had to be checked slightly giving up the rail position to the leader who was angling in entering the turn, shifted out to rebid on the outside two furlongs from the wire, bore out to the seven path losing ground at the top of the stretch and faded when battling for the place share in the last sixteenth of a mile outside runners. HALCON NEGRO was unhurried trailing along the backside, went by the troubled foe inside at the three furlong pole, shifted out with a quarter mile from home, swung out widest in the eight path for the stretch run and could only pass a weary foe down the lane. IM NOT LOST broke in brushing the inside rival on the start, watched the lead pair while outside three deep down the backside, was hard ridden going four wide on the turn holding position, angled to the six path at the top of the lane but yielded in upper stretch between horses. HAPI EKATI veered out on the start, continued to get out down the backside, trailed throughout the turn, drifted out to the eight-path straightening for the drive but could not factor in the late running.
