Maiden Claiming

Chart notes

JUST TELL ANNE found the middle of the pack between runners, waited patiently for her outside horse to make their move around the far turn allowing her to angle out four wide approaching the quarter, sustained a rally down the lane to be up by the sixteenth. OUTRO broke outward and bumped rival, took charge along the inside of the backstretch, came under a ride about the quarter to maintain her lead but was met with a bid at the eighth, grudgingly gave way to that runner at the sixteenth, just held for second. PORTIXOL gave chase along the inside, started asking rounding the far turn but had no room to go, continued trapped along the rail until the final sixteenth as OUTRO moved away from the inside enough to allow passage but it was too late, just missed the place honors. TIMELESS MELODY raced off the pace along the inside, was coaxed along through the far turn closing some ground, shifted out four wide in the upper stretch before taking to the outside in the final furlong, put together an improving run while swapping leads down the lane. MAJESTIC MOONLIGHT was rated along the inside, got in tight around the ten-sixteenths and took hold, continued along until launching a five wide bid at the quarter but did not provide enough. RED BEACH attended the pace two wide in the early stages, backed off to shadow the pace before the far turn, started asking at the five-sixteenths, kept up with the pace until the final furlong where she drifted out, switched to her inside lead, and weakened. BATTLE WINNER bumped inner foe at the start, found forward placement to track the pace three wide, came under a ride around the three-eighths to find a prominent position turning for home but lacked the final kick needed, go swallowed by the pack inside the final sixteenth. AL LATAFAH was off a step slow and bumped with inner foe at the start, trailed for most, began to make mild gains rounding the far turn. OLATZ (GB) settled off the pace in tight between runners, brushed with HONOR THE NUMBERS at the half and with NO DIFFERENCE at the three eighths, moved out four wide at the quarter but was unable to form a rally. HONOR THE NUMBERS bumped outer foe at the start, raced off the pace three wide, brushed with OLATZ at the half mile marker while beginning to get nudged along but had no response. NO DIFFERENCE raced off the pace four wide, shifted in rounding the far turn brushing with OLATZ at the three-eighths, never threatened.
