Chart notes

ABOVE THE LINE was away alertly, a factor on the turn and from the five path at the top of the stretch fought gamely for the win. SUPER DUPER was hustled early and had a slim lead on the turn but from the three path at the top of the stretch failed to hold. EASY ACCESS was off the pace and gained ground on the turn but from the six path at the top of the stretch leveled off. RIVER OF PEARLS was in range and raced evenly on the turn but from the five path at the top of the stretch was no real threat. ESSA STAR was in touch and roused from between foes on the turn but from the three path at the top of the stretch had no response. STEPITUPSTEPHANIE showed speed from the inside and dueled on the turn but had nothing left. MILWAUKEE GEM was well back and showed little in a dull effort. NUDGENUDGEWINKWINK was in mid pack and saved ground on the turn but dropped back through the stretch.
