Maiden Special Weight

Chart notes

EXPRESSWAY was hustled from the gate, moved up under urging to establish a good position towards the front, shifted from the inside to the three path on the turn, turned into the stretch under the crop, gained to make a bid coming to the furlong marker, took the advantage outside the sixteenth-pole and just held under strong urging. NO PRESSURE (IRE) broke in and hit the gate, moved in while urged along off the pace, raced inside to the two path on the turn, steadied briefly between horses in traffic nearing the quarter-pole, was roused for his best in upper stretch, gained into the final furlong then swapped back to his inside lead, angled out approaching the sixteenth-pole and finished fast while remaining on his inside lead to the finish and just missed but earned the place. LET'S BE FRANK broke in and bumped hard with a foe, moved in while urged along off the pace, dropped back while a bit green late on the backstretch, moved from the rail to the three path on the turn, climbed greenly behind horses approaching the quarter-pole, spun into the stretch in the four path under the crop, found his best stride into the final furlong and closed fast but was too late while up for the show. B RAGING ON showed speed then set the pace under pressure to his outside, moved clear near the seven-sixteenths pole, controlled the action along the rail on the turn, was roused into upper stretch, led under a drive into the final furlong, lost the advantage to the winner outside the sixteenth-pole and was outfinished then caught for the show. ABRIGADO was urged along while forwardly placed, chased in the two then three path on the turn, moved out in upper stretch and lacked the needed kick. RAFA JUNIOR was bumped hard at the start and forced in, settled towards the rear, saved ground while roused on the turn, turned into the stretch in the two path and failed to threaten. FOURTH DIMENSION dropped back at the start, was urged along towards the rear, dropped from the four path to the three path early on the turn, shifted to the five path late on that bend, floated out to the eight path into upper stretch and was no factor. KAZ BRIO was off slow and spotted the front a few lengths, raced at the rear under urging, saved ground on the turn, spun into the stretch in the two path and also was no factor. PHNOM PENH was urged along off the pace, steadied when a foe crossed in front outside the half-mile pole, went around the turn in the three then four path, turned into the stretch in the five path and failed to rally. FORCE pressed the pace on the outside, dropped back leaving the backstretch, chased in the two path for most of the turn then moved to the inside and retreated. Copyright 2026 Equibase Company LLC.
