Chart notes

SWEET SISSONE set the pace along the inside, led narrowly inside of a pair of rivals around the turn, shook clear in upper stretch, met an outer challenge at the sixteenth pole and held firm. HEY MISS OLIVIA raced forwardly along the inside, chased the top trio around the turn, shifted out to the four path in upper stretch, sustained gradual progress to bid outside of the clear leader at the sixteenth pole but was fended off thereafter. MARCHELINE broke a step slow, settled well back in the two path, shifted out to the four path while inching between horses at the three sixteenths pole, shifted inwardly into the final furlong then ran on to edge show from an outer rival late. LIZ KNOWS BEST prompted outside of the eventual winner early on, vied two wide and between horses around the turn, yielded to her inner counterpart in upper stretch then faded. GERBER DAISY steadied when an outer rival shifted across her path at the five furlong pole, tracked from midpack in the two path, forged show while moving out to the four path leaving upper stretch then flattened out. DREAM CHICK saved ground off of the pace to no avail. READY FOR A TITLE bumped the outer stall door and was off slow, raced off of the pace in the three path, shifted out to the five to six path in upper stretch and failed to menace. LOTS OF KISSES pressed three wide, prompted the top pair around the turn, but yielded while leaning to the four path entering the lane then weakened once floated to the five path in upper stretch. UNA MADIBA broke a step slow, trailed along the inside and got outrun. Copyright 2026 Equibase Company LLC. All Rights Reserved.
