Maiden Claiming

Chart notes

AWOL rated in the four path up the backstretch, merged into the two path while coming under pressure midway around the far turn, ranged up while angling out passing the three-sixteenths, took aim while swinging form the six path into the lane, rallied past an inner pair around the sixteenth, and went clear. FITZGERALD dictated the pace in the two path, lost the lead to an inner rival entering the far turn, re-engaged for the lead in the three path midway around the far turn, floated out to the five path at the top of the short stretch, could not keep up with the outer closing winner, but fought on for place. CUTTING CLASS laid up close inside, moved up to press passing the half, took the lead passing the three-eighths pole, was cued midway around the far turn, stayed on in upper stretch, but flattened around the sixteenth to show. BRAVITAS raced off the pace in the five path, improved outside of foes around the far turn, but finished on one pace. COPPERJACKET had a slow start, trailed in the four path, moved up under a drive around the far turn, and passed tired foes in the three path down the lane. EXPENSIVE GAME as hustled from up close in the three path, driven around the far turn, but weakened in the stretch. EL GATO AMERICANO tracked inside, was driven around the far turn, but yielded down the stretch. VINEY raced in range between foes from the two path but retreated. HIGH ARCTIC stalked in the four path, was driven around the far turn, but yielded passing the three-sixteenths pole. BOWLFULLOFLEMONS had a slow start, was wellback in the two path and never threatened. JONESBOOGIE steadied around the first turn, rated in the two path, was driven in the three path around the far turn, but faltered. STAUF raced in midpack from the four path but backed up around the far turn.
