Chart notes

GREAT ESCAPE stalked the pace early, raced in the four path along the turn, made a bid three wide nearing the lane, was in the five path into the lane, took over near the eighth pole and was driven clear in the final stages. SEAL BEACH tracked the pace early, raced in the two to three path along the turn, was in the four path into the lane, made a bid down the lane, stayed on well but was no match for the winner late. GIANT GAME was a bit slow at the start and raced back early on, was in the three path into the lane, rallied in the stretch, moved up and prevailed for show at the wire. CALL ME MIDNIGHT chased the pace early, raced in the three path along the turn, was in the five path into the lane, rallied in the stretch and just missed show at the wire. SURFER DUDE raced up close early on from the rail, shifted into the three path entering the lane and weakened late in the stretch run. EPICENTER set the pace early, raced on the rail along the turn, was in the two path into the lane and gave way late in the stretch drive. HITTING BOMBS broke a bit awkward and was no threat. YONO was never a factor. RUNQUIETLY was a bit slow at the start and outrun. BLOODLINE was a bit slow and bumped at the start, through after a half.
