Chart notes

COASTLINE SERMON was prompted to gain a position outside foes in second flight racing through the backstretch, steadily advanced on the turn to bid for command three wide between nearing upper stretch, shifted inwards contesting the issue in a prolonged drive past midstretch and narrowly prevailed in time under right handed encouragement. TEXAS LONG BOW was urged to gain the lead while angling to the rail in the opening stages, set the pace on a narrow advantage to the turn, dueled for command inside foes past midstretch, grudgingly resisted the winner to the end and just missed. WATER PATROL tracked off the second flight outside foes in the opening quarter, was prompted to advance four wide racing into the turn, loomed outside the leaders in that path nearing upper stretch, shifted in pressing the issue three deep to midstretch and flattened out late. JOE JACKSON, urged between foes prompting the pacesetter into the turn, weakened racing into upper stretch, then shifted four wide in the closing stages while continuing with interest. CIMPL MAN settled between foes off the second flight, then angled inside in the second furlong, switched out on the turn while being prompted to advance, was fanned five wide into upper stretch and continued evenly in late stages. SIR BRAHMS stumbled at the start, settled between foes and never gained contention. ROLLS ROYCE DEAL, a bit slow into stride, was fanned six wide into the stretch while proving no threat. YO Y ME angled to the inside early and steadily faded racing into the turn. WRITE ME A SONG, off a bit slowly, never gained contention. GRAND OMEGA angled to the rail tracking off the second flight racing to the turn and gave way nearing the lane.
