Maiden Special Weight

Chart notes

UNIVERSE hit the inside of the gate hard and was off a bit slow, moved up under urging to race just off the pace, drafted inside on the turn, was asked near the quarter-pole then moved out under a left-handed crop in upper stretch, switched to a right-handed crop while remaining on his inside lead coming to the furlong marker, swapped to the proper lead while rallying to the front outside the sixteenth-pole then drew away under a strong hand-ride from that point to the finish. DRAGONES broke out and bumped with a rival, pressed the pace on the outside, vied in the two path on the turn, took the lead into upper stretch, led under a drive into the final furlong then lost the advantage to the winner and proved no match but just held the place. IMA BIG BAD WOLF was slow into stride and spotted the front a few lengths, raced on the outside while ridden along at the back, traveled around most of the turn in the three path then moved to the four path, turned into the stretch in the six path and finished with good energy to just miss the place while narrowly up for the show. OUR MAGICAL MOON was hustled to the front then set the pace under pressure to his outside, vied inside while asked for more on the turn, lost the advantage under the crop into upper stretch, dropped back near the eighth-pole, kept on willingly in the final furlong and just missed the trifecta. BUNTUS FOCLORA bumped with a rival at the start, chased the pace, dropped from the three path to the two path outside the three-eighths pole, moved back to the three path later on that bend, spun into the stretch in the four path, drifted out near the three-sixteenths pole and tired. GRITTINESS was urged along on the outside, brushed with a rival outside the half-mile pole, moved closer near the seven-sixteenths pole, chased in the four then three path on the turn, dropped back while remaining on his inside lead in upper stretch, swapped to the proper lead inside the furlong marker and tired. CAPO DI TUTTI was off slow and spotted the front a few lengths, raced towards the rear under urging, saved ground on the turn and failed to threaten. RELEVANCE broke a bit slow, was urged along off the pace, dropped back in the two path on the turn, swung out to the five path into the stretch then moved further out and came up empty. AKKADIAN lunged at the start and was off slow, spotted the front a few lengths, raced towards the rear under urging, went around the turn in the two path and was no factor.
