Chart notes

BEING MYSELF stalked four to three wide, advanced to vie three deep at the half mile pole, forged an advantage rounding the far turn, met an outer challenge while disposing of her inner counterparts approaching the quarter pole, sparred with that one neck and neck into the final furlong and held gamely. SENSING FLATTER pulled and steadied among rivals leaving the seven furlong pole, tracked two wide and between horses down the backstretch, tipped out and ranged up four deep at the five sixteenths marker, bid outside of the leader turning for home, dueled with that one through the final furlong but was denied. SCOOCH OVER tracked along the inside, inconsequentially trampled an errant plastic bag into the far turn, advanced tipping three wide and between rivals at the five sixteenths pole, claimed show while chasing the embattled pair into the lane and was best of the rest. BRAVE SAMANTHA pursued three wide and between horses, but yielded once floated five wide at the three furlong pole and lacked a re-rally. KELLY'S WAY BACK showed the way along the inside, vied with an outer pair of bidders reaching the half mile pole, leapt an errant trash-bag into the far turn, but gave way inside of a trio of rivals nearing the quarter pole and faded. DASHIN' DIVA pressed two wide and between horses, moved to vie between rivals at the half mile pole, then faded turning for home. TYPHOON TAFFY laid off of the pace four wide and was done early.
