Chart notes

SAVING ARGUMENT moved up to show the way past the wire the first time, dueled along the inside the middle half, shook off the other speed in the second turn, responded when confronted by the runner up nearing midstretch, held that foe late in a determined effort. SANDBAGGER AL bumped at the start, raced in mid pack early, advanced along the inside into contention late in the final turn, shifted out and tried the winner from the outside past the furlong marker, could not get by to be outfinished in the late going. MUSICAL MAN unhurried early well out in the course, continued to be outrun up the backstretch, dropped inside far turn, improved while saving ground into the straight, finished up best of the rest while not a threat to the top two. COCO'S MAN void of speed, remained back into the far turn, raced in the two path through that bend, also improved position while not a serious threat to the top pair. MISS JENNY'S HALO within striking distance, came up empty the final furlong. KISS OF THE WOLF bumped with the runner up at the break, set or forced the pace for almost six furlongs while well wide, gave way in the drive. EASY TO MISS in mid pack for a half, faltered. MY TY FU PEG remained always back. OPENING QUARTER FRACTIONAL SPLIT HAND TIMED DUE TO TIMER MALFUNCTION.
