Off at a firming 5.70-1 while making a belated first trip to the races, QUEEN MAXIMA (f, 3, Bucchero–Corfu Lady, by Corfu) overcame a couple of spots of adversity to post an extremely impressive victory in the Saturday finale at Del Mar. Drawn the fence, the $40,000 OBS June graduate bombed the start and was clearly last early before making some ground to be about midfield into the turn. Traveling strongly and full of run passing the five-sixteenths, but in need of room as the field neared the stretch, the chestnut bided her time, was pointed at daylight leaving the eighth pole and exploded through a hole to score by good 2 1/2 lengths. Sales history: $40,000 2yo ’23 OBSJUN. O-Irving Venture LLC or Arthur; B-Saul Rosas (FL); T-Jeff Mullins.
