RACE NINE OBSERVATIONS by The Wizard on Saturday, May 02, 2009

(3) INFORMED DECISION - Settled nicely behind hot fractions while relaxed near the inside, continued to rate behind the leaders heading into the far turn. She was out-moved while full run and nowhere to go, moving outside and then finally inside by Leparoux when finally in clear, settling suddenly in the final 1/16 of a mile to win going away. (6) TEMPLE STREET - Was dead last turning for home, angled out widest for her rally, continued to race well-out in the middle of the track while improving her position, and then closed with a flourish late to get the place. (2) DUBAI MAJESTY - Outsprinted the field to get the lead, held that an advantage into the stretch, raced erratically while weaving past midstretch and then tired in inside the final 70yds but managed to deadheat for the show. (8) MODIFICATION - She was angled very wide turning home for a stretch bid, continued to make up ground while well out in the track, and then closed with interest to finish on even terms for third. (9) GAME FACE - Moved three-wide to commence her bid around the far turn, darted to inside shortly after entering the stretch and then lacked a late response. (5) SECRET GYPSY - Chased the fast early pace two-wide until the far turn and then gave way badly.
