Chart notes

POINT OF HUMOR intent on the lead, showed the way in hand just off the inside, tucked inside through the turn coming under coaxing near the quarter pole, spun three wide for home, edged clear to the eighth pole, dug in and held well to prevail. NO BURN hustled from the start, chased four then three wide before tucking to the two path through the turn advancing on the leader, swung four wide for home, dug in under a drive running on to the finish to be along well clear of the rest and second best, then got pulled up after the finish appearing to be having heat issues and was attended to by the veterinarian and subsequently walked off under his own power. UNCLE SKEETS hustled from the gate, chased two to three wide under coaxing from the three-eighths, swung five wide for home and weakened. CALL HOME chased four to five wide under a ride from the three-eighths, cornered five wide into upper stretch and tired. NAPOLEON COMPLEX five to six paths off the inside down the backstretch, tucked three wide through the turn coaxed along from the three-eighths, went four wide at the head of the stretch and made no impact. VALUE CHAIN coaxed from the start, crossed directly to the rail and chased along the inside under coaxing from the seven-sixteenths, cut the corner into upper stretch and trailed throughout.
