Race Summary

DELTA PRINCESS, reserved soon after the start and angled in four wide, reached contention as the field bunched approaching the stretch, circled horses eight wide and was under urging to prevail. SHACONAGE, up close from the outset and five or six wide to the far turn, made the lead between calls leaving the backstretch, was headed from the inside by ERHU just before going six furlongs, regained the advantage in the upper stretch, then failed to contain the winner's surge. ERHU, never far back, raced near the inside, rallied inside to reach the front on the far turn but weakened nearing the final furlong. CAPE TOWN LASS, unhurried early and four wide, was asked for her best at the five-sixteenths pole, remained a factor into the final furlong and failed to fire. PRETTY JANE gained the lead early, raced five wide while making the pace, edged in a bit nearing the end of the backstretch, when displaced, held on well until the final quarter and weakened. DYNAMIC CAT settled near the inside, came out five wide entering the stretch and had no rally. SPARKLING HUMOR popped the gate open prior to the start but was in the hands of the assistant starter. During the running, SPARKLING HUMOR forced the pace between foes to the end of the backstretch and weakened.
