Chart notes

BRAVO BRAVO broke well, cleared to the lead while racing keenly near the seven eighths, continued to set the pace while eager down the backstretch, raced in the two path around the far turn, went to a drive in upper stretch, drew well clear of everyone except for GUN WAR who continued to give chase in close range inside, but kept finding enough to hold that foe at bay. GUN WAR was keen inside while disputing the pace in the opening furlong, found himself outsprinted from the seven eighths, continued to track the leader while racing inside, saved ground around the far turn while still tracking BRAVO BRAVO, went to a drive inside into the lane, opened up on the rest of the field while still chasing BRAVO BRAVO, and kept on evenly to prove second best. DARE GOES DA DEVIL settled at the rear, was pushed along in the three to four path around the far turn, swung into the stretch in the five path, drifted out slightly further under a drive in upper stretch, proved no match for the leading pair but chased on mildly to prove best of the rest. SMOKEY SONG tracked the leading pair two wide through the first turn, raced three wide with the tracking flight into the backstretch, was pushed along into the far turn while still tracking outside of GUN WAR but soon outpaced by the leading pair, chased those foes in the three path on the far turn, and proved empty between horses in the lane. BLOOMING GARDEN tracked the leading pair inside of SMOKEY SONG through the clubhouse turn, raced into the backstretch between horses in the tracking flight, began to gradually flatten from the eleven sixteenths, raced along the rail with the rear flight around the far turn, was driven inside in upper stretch and proved empty.
