Chart notes

LOVE THE NEST broke readily, vied for command between foes racing through the backstretch into the turn, shook clear while angling to the inside racing into upper stretch and widened his margin under firm left handed encouragement. NORTH ARM BAY tracked off the first flight four wide between foes in early stages, shifted inwards a bit nearing the turn, was prompted to advance while being fanned five wide into upper stretch and continued with a solid late response to prevail for the place honors on the wire. DOCTOR OSCAR ducked inwards at the start crossing into the path of XAVEY DAVE, was roused to a forward placing while shifting out four wide racing through the backstretch, gained striking distance in that path nearing upper stretch but couldn't gain even terms with the winner and flattened out in the last furlong. XAVEY DAVE, caught in tight quarters at the start, tracked off the first flight between foes racing to the turn, shifted out four wide racing into upper stretch and continued even late. BENS MALICE broke outwards exchanging light contact with HAPPY HOUR BOBBY, was settled into stride dropping well back early, shifted four wide racing into upper stretch and continued with interest to gain some position late. OVERSEAS LETTER came through close quarters in the opening stages to track off the first flight along the inside racing to the turn and faded into upper stretch. JACKS WILLIE caught five wide tracking well off the first flight racing to the turn, failed to menace. HAPPY HOUR BOBBY sprinted to join the pace three wide prompting the eventual winner racing into the turn and emptied out nearing the lane. SAINT CHARLES was hustled inside foes prompting the pace through the backstretch but was spent after three furlongs. MARK OF VALOR was never a factor.
