Maiden Optional Claiming

Chart notes

SCAT GIRL settled nicely with runners on either side in the third flight down the backside, was nudged for more improving smartly between foes in midturn, had a clear lane moving out five wide for the drive, powered past to take control at the furlong pole and was drawing away at the wire for the win. MO ARGENTO had a good spot tucked in behind the contesting three down the backside, waited patiently just off the fence still keeping a close eye on the front threesome still continuing to battle for the lead around the bend, darted to the fence having clear run in upper stretch, moved in to bid inside foes by the furlong pole and fought on determinedly to the wire but was no match for the winner in the final seventy yards. MOBULA had an outside spot in the second tier watching the dueling trio along the backside, travelled three wide outside of trouble waiting for the cue to move around the oval, was fanned out eight wide at the quarter pole and grinded away steadily down the lane to get up in the late stages between rivals to capture the show money at the finish line. SYMPATICO was hustled on the fence having a slim lead down the backside, continued saving ground with a narrow advantage up front through the turn still hounded by a couple of rivals, dug in just off the rail in upper stretch and gave way grudgingly in the final furlong saving for a minor share all the while not beaten that much for the place and show money as well. ABINO BAY moved through the backstretch to get to the rail from the outer post while in a stalking spot ahead of a couple of rivals going into the turn, mildly narrowed the margin on the lead trio on the turn, angled out seven wide straightening out for the drive, shifted out further to be nine wide at the furlong pole and under a left handed crop had good late energy to finish with intent closing in smartly at the wire. CALL ME KAYKAY stalked inside runners while having a few rivals beaten along the backside, closed the gap between foes but could not gain position around the bend, shifted to the four path at the quarter pole, was one paced wandering slightly down the late and could not get involved by the time they hit the finish line. CLOUD RIDER settled close to the back of the pack in the early going, made little impression taking the short way around the turn, angled out five wide with the field bunching up at the top of the lane, was allowed to drift inwards trying find a clear lane driving down the stretch but could not factor in the late running when finishing up on the fence at the wire. NAUGHTY DESTINY travelled three deep in the third flight down the back straight, held her own moving comfortably four wide outside on the bend, swung out widest in the nine path turning for home, had a chance for a piece of the prize by the furlong pole but stalled in the final seventy yards between horses. MY EMMY advanced five deep outside foes to sit in midfield along the backstretch, kept pace with the lead threesome while going three wide outside horses on the turn, shifted out in the six-path having no room to go in upper stretch, angled to be eight wide with three sixteenths from the wire but failed to fire in the late running. BEACH CRICKET settled in the third flight on the rail with the field already string out midway down the backstretch, travelled in mid-pack on the turn coming under a ride to hold position at the half, shifted just outside two wide for the stretch run but had little to give and tired on the fence at the eighth pole. MONTY'S INN prompted the issue three deep down the back straight, continued the three wide journey outside shadowing the two other foes dueling for the lead on the bend, swung out to the six path for the drive and gave way with three sixteenths still left to run. TANZANITE LILY vied between runners in the early stages of the race, shifted out to the three path between foes turning for home, had little left to offer in the lane and faltered by the furlong pole. LOVE TO DREAM stalked outside foes ahead of only one runner down the backside going into the turn, still remained well behind horses around the oval, galloped through the stretch playing no role in the in the late stages and was far back when coming across the finish line. REMARKABLY HUMAN was void of early speed to see the field along the backside, lagged at the back by many losing touch with the group around the turn, was not persevered with cantering down the lane and eventually crossed the wire in the end.
