Chart notes

BARNEY GOOGLE broke sharply, but was taken in hand and dropped back to trail entering the backstretch, commenced his bid one out from the rail entering the final turn, swung six wide entering the lane, and closed with a rush to prove best. MONTE away well and dueled for the lead from the outside of A TREE OF LIFE entering the backstretch, forced the issue from the outside of that rival in the run to the final turn, assumed command while racing two wide into the turn, maintained his advantage into the lane, but was unable to fend off BARNEY GOOGLE in the closing strides, while clearly second best. VALUE MAX tracked the dueling leaders into the backstretch while racing just out from the rail, rallied three wide entering the final turn, and finished evenly while drifting towards the rail in mid stretch. ROSE OF TEXAS away alertly and stalked the early pace while racing two out from the rail entering the backstretch, rallied four wide entering the final turn, but failed to mount a late bid while finishing one out from the rail in the stretch drive. A TREE OF LIFE rushed up from along the rail entering the first turn to vie for the early lead, set a pressured pace from the inside of MONTE in the run to the final turn, was unable to match strides with that rival entering the turn, and weakened in the late stages.
