Race Summary

C C'S PAL broke awkwardly yet raced to the front and was kept under a firm grip while traveling along the rail, allowed to run freely with five furlongs to go, was challenged at the quarter-pole before being roused at the top of the stretch, then drew off under right-handed urging. RULE OF TWELFTHS was bumped by KRISTYS NOT SHY coming out of the starting gate, chased the leaders while three wide on the opening turn, was under the whip past the three-eighths pole in an attempt to mount a threat to the leader, raced two wide on the final turn and soon was no match for the winner. FAVORITE DANCER was allowed to chase the leaders while five wide on the opening turn, moved at the leader with a quarter mile left, was three wide on the second turn and had no rally. MELODY OF VICTORIA was able to drop in leaving the starting gate to race three wide on the first turn, advanced to be along the rail on the second turn but lacked the needed finish. GRAND OPRY tracked the leaders while four wide on the opening turn, was three wide on the final turn but was no serious threat. MAFITA was content to trail while four wide on the opening turn, was two wide on the final turn but still lagged at the back of the pack. KRISTYS NOT SHY bumped RULE OF TWELFTHS leaving the starting gate, settled two wide on the first turn, pulled the rider leaving the opening quarter mile, had trouble keeping up with three-eighths left, bolted at the quarter-pole and was done.
