Chart notes

FAMILY BIZ at a considerable distance from off the rail throughout, was stacked six wide midpoint on the turn, came under a ride spinning five wide onto the top of the lane, closed in well during the ensuing furlong, maintained the momentum, struck the front end just inside the sixteenth pole and edged clear. LIMONITE disputed the pace from along the inside route, was the innermost of a three contending for the top from the top of the turn until the vicinity of the five-sixteenths pole, got let loose for the drive, saw the eventual winner looming up boldly by the eighth pole, got overhauled with slightly under a sixteenth to go, had no trouble salvaging second. MALIBU PRO three wide onto the turn, was in the same path heading home, went on to secure the show. HONORABLE SERVICE took up position towards midpack, sat parked out five wide on the turn, got cued up entering the stretch, left the three-sixteenths pole about a couple of paths nearer the rail than before, made no impact en route to the final significant slice of the purse. AMERICAN LINCOLN sparred for command from path two, going about the task from between rivals for a good portion of the journey on the turn, faltered. THE SICARII a bit keen leaving the chute, travelled four wide on the turn, got set down at the five-sixteenths pole, angled towards path six early during the stretch run, failed to fire appreciably. KUMAR forwardly placed three wide, was the widest of three vying for the top from the half mile pole until around the five-sixteenths pole, stepped into the stretch, hung around as a prominent factor for a little while longer then backed away. ROAMING UNION hustled along on the chute, saved ground until the quarter pole, went into the three path entering the stretch, fell back. All riders carried an additional two pounds in compliance with a weather-related safety initiative.
