Chart notes

ORIGO angled inwards in the opening stages while being rated between foes racing to the backstretch, pulled his way to contention in the four path racing through the backstretch advancing on the pacesetter, moved to wrest the advantage in that path nearing upper stretch, shifted inwards entering the lane and steadily widened the margin under a few right handed taps to prove best. ONE LUCKY DAY was rated tracking off the first flight while racing off the inside to the backstretch, continued three wide nearing upper stretch and prevailed for the place honors in the closing stages. MEROKEE, urged forcing the pace outside a rival racing in the three path into the backstretch, gained a brief lead after a half setting the pace in the three path racing into the far turn, proved no match when confronted by the winner and gave way racing into the stretch. WILD IRISHMAN, off a bit slowly, was settled outside foes in the last flight early, shifted inwards racing through the far turn to gain some position between foes in the closing stages and was taken in hand approaching the wire. ONWARD AUSTIN, urged along the disputing the pace from the outset to the backstretch, gave way racing into the far turn. BALI BEACH was settled inside foes in early stages and failed to menace thereafter. AGENT COOPER hopped at the start breaking last, settled between foes in the last flight and never proved a threat.
