Maiden Special Weight

Chart notes

COUPLET stalked from outside four to six wide throughout, struck the lead in upper stretch, forged clear under steady urging. CURLIN'S CHARM was in just a hair tight early, settled last but one racing off the inside, was mostly in the three path through the turn, came out five wide turning for home finding room between runners, was second best. SWEET REWARD was lightly bumped early, moved up in behind the leaders stalking from just off the fence, shifted in toward the rail in upper stretch, ran on inside but needed more. SHE'S OUR TEN contested the pace from off the rail, was headed into the turn, kept on but was no match for the top ones. SONHADOR tucked in after the start unhurriedly bringing up the rear, advanced outside a foe on the turn, came out six wide in the stretch and passed tired rivals. MANCUSO forced the pace pressing from outside, put a short head in front at the three-eighths, vied between rivals on the turn, gave way in the stretch. SERENA'S SURPRISE stalked from outside, went four wide on the turn and closer to the lead, bid briefly about the quarter pole, faltered in the stretch. WILLOWY bumped a rival in the early going, was in a bit tight soon after shuffling back and shifting in, was encouraged along past the seven-sixteenths racing on the rail but was never a threat. HUDSON RIVER LINE chased from inside, was pulled up and transported off the racetrack via equine ambulance.
