Maiden Optional Claiming

Chart notes

VRANA (IRE) broke sharp for the early lead, was taken back up top when the inside leader was getting out considerably by the nine sixteenths pole, tracked the pacesetter four deep at the half, rallied three wide circling outside foes through the turn, loomed boldly five wide at the top of the lane and drew off smartly in the final furling for the victory. VERI COLLECTED was forwardly positioned alone watching the front foursome in the mix up top with a half mile still to run, kept pace on the outside in the third tier with five sixteenths to go, angled out in the six path full of run through the lane and charged by runners late on the outside to get up for a non threatening second at the wire. JUICY HANNA stalked inside near the rear with a half mile still to run, started to pick up runners three wide on the outside commencing at the three eighths pole, swung out widest in the seven path full of run down the stretch and closed in late to capture the show money while not that far beaten for the runners up share as well at the wire. RYO AMAZING had the outside in a stalking position along the back straight, rallied inside foes at the three furling pole, adavanced smartly on the fence through the bend, burst between foes dueling for the lead in the two path at the head of the lane, could not continue on up top late and stalled with seventy yards to go settling on the fringes at the finish line. OUTFORARIP watched the contesting duo while nestled on the rail in the beginning, took closer order forcing the pace inside at the half mile marker, slipped up the fence taking over the lead by midturn, was collared on both sides three wide in upper stretch and wilted between rivals in the final furlong. BEACH CRICKET settled on the rail in mid-pack in the beginning, dropped back to be between horses in the rear trio on the turn and finished up with late interest to pass a few tired rivals in the stretch running. SISTER MARJORIE tracked the lead trio outside early on, moved in to draft behind the frontrunner at the half, was under a ride but was shuffled back by the five sixteenths pole, lacked running room in tight in the two path between horses at the top of the stretch and yielded in the final furlong. MALIBU BETTY was allowed to settle into stride trailing the field down the backstretch, took the short way around the bend still at the back of the pack and could only pass the leg weary early leader inside by the furlong pole. TALLAWAH seized command pulling the rider to the lead between foes leaving the chute, was getting out considerably up front at the nine sixteenths pole, still remained on the lead by a slim margin in the three path at the half, surrendered the front letting a rival up the fence midway on the turn, was swarmed by runners while four wide turning for home and emptied out by the eighth pole.
