Maiden Special Weight

Chart notes

OBVIOUS CONCLUSION dueled inside, edged clear into the lane, drifted out a path nearing mid stretch, met an outside challenge from IHAVETOOMUCHAIR near mid stretch, came out under left handed asking bumping that one near the sixteenth pole, corrected and held sway. IHAVETOOMUCHAIR stalked a contested pace while saving ground, eased out into the lane, moved up to challenge in mid stretch, was bumped and herded out with a sixteenth to go and kept on gamely to the wire. GRIND JIM broke a step slow, regrouped and saved ground, advanced along the rail around the turn and into the lane, chased the leaders past mid stretch and kept on with effort. FLY RED BIRD FLY , fractious in the gate, moved up four wide nearing the half to take up a stalking spot, gained outside foes nearing the quarter pole, chased on the left lead and flattened out. CURLY'S ONE THING rated off the pace while saving ground, eased out mid turn, angled five wide with a bit of a run in upper stretch, shifted back in but lacked the needed finish. FLYING TEX veered out at the break, was taken back soon after, raced four wide between runners into the turn, remained wide past the five sixteenths, angled in for the drive then came up empty. HE'S CHARMING rated early, angled out near the three eighths, was carried out to be six wide past the five sixteenths, straightened into the lane but lacked a rally. MORO TRENDSETTER , off the pace, saved ground in upper stretch and failed to menace. FAIR WEATHER FLYER had speed, stalked the duelers three wide, wandered outward mid turn and faded. FIST BUMP RIDGE had speed and dueled outside a rival, stayed a factor to the quarter pole then weakened. DOC HENRY RIDGE , four to five wide, was not a factor. HANK RIDGE , three wide early, was not a threat. JOHN LOUIS' BEVO , four wide, faltered mid turn. Following a stewards' inquiry and objection by the trainer of IHAVETOOMUCHAIR, OBVIOUS CONCLUSION was disqualified from first and placed second for causing interference in the stretch.
