Chart notes

YAMATO raced two to three wide around the first turn and settled nicely off the early pace, launched a four wide bid entering the upper stretch, gathered momentum under steady pressure and kicked clear. STRIKE APPEAL raced midpack outside through early stages, roused forward three wide late on the far turn, dueled for the lead into the final furlong then got outkicked by the winner. AMERICAN NINJA rated off the early pace, took the inside position late on the far turn, hustled up between foes in the upper stretch, shifted out four wide for a clear path in the final furlong, finished with response and captured show. STRIKE THE TOP tracked the pace along the outside, roused forward late on the far turn, dueled between rivals into the final furlong, flattened out late and got edged for show. LAMPLIGHTER JACK set the pace up the backstretch, came under attack at the head of the lane, dueled into the final furlong then gave way. DILIGENT raced near midpack, was ridden along three wide around the far turn, got in tight and steadied between foes in the upper stretch and flattened out. SURF AND TURF raced outside off the early pace, swung five wide into the upper stretch and lacked a needed rally. LIGHT FURY steadied entering the first turn, stalked up the backstretch, remained in contention around the far turn then tired in the drive. MARISA'S MISSION bumped with rival at the start, was reserved racing in the back, came three wide into the lane and failed to respond. TOWN CLASSIC was forwardly placed stalking up the backstretch, came up empty late on the far turn and steadily weakened. AMBASSADOR JIM settled through early stages, failed to advance under pressure around the far turn and steadily faded. Copyright 2026 Equibase Company LLC. All Rights Reserved.
