Chart notes

PELUCHIN CHIN, forwardly placed while shifting outside the pacesetter racing through the backstretch, moved to challenge that rival nearing upper stretch, wrested the advantage entering the lane, shifted inwards under pressure but went clear under pressure. RUNNING VIOLENCE switched out in early stages to track the leaders in the three path between foes racing into the turn, then continued with a steady effort in that path to edge a rival for the place honors in time. FIFTY CENTS broke sharply, angled inwards dictating the pace on a comfortable margin through the backstretch, dueled inside the winner into upper stretch and weakened leaving the furlong marlker. THE BEAST GOES ON settled inside foes in the last flight racing to the turn, saved ground to upper stretch, then shifted four wide in the closing stages continuing with interest to gain some position. MIAMI CHROME worked his way to the inside in early stages to gain a position inside foes in second flight, saved ground through the turn, tipped out in late stages but had no closing bid. DUTCHMEN FOREVER settled outside foes in the last flight in the opening stages, shifted inwards racing through the turn while being prompted to advance but proved no threat. DENY switched out to the four path in the opening quarter tracking just off the leaders to the turn and steadily faded into upper stretch. THE WILD FLYER proved no factor. FOLLOWING THE RACE, THE RIDER OF FIFTY CENTS LODGED A CLAIM OF FOUL AGAINST THE WINNER ALLEGING INTERFERENCE MIDSTRETCH BUT THAT CLAIM WAS DISALLOWED.
