Chart notes

SKIPPYLONGSTOCKING benefitted from traffic at the break to be forwardly placed stalking to the far turn engaging there wresting a short lead abreast rival in upper stretch edging clear in the final yards. WE THE PEOPLE sent clear chose to rate the pace posting soft splits through the backside being hooked on the far turn extending on the inside of rival down the stretch ceding the issue late. SIMPLIFICATION in close at the break stalked close up through the backside chasing on the far turn wavering in upper stretch racing evenly the final eighth in the four path. HOME BREW squeezed back at the break raced evenly through the backside losing ground to rivals on the far turn finishing evenly to best the others. KING OTTOMAN squeezed back at the break gave a prompted middle move chasing on the far turn wearing out in upper stretch. COURVOISIER veered in jamming rivals at the break, tracked evenly through the backside then gave way on the far turn. JR'S GIFT veered out leaving the gate, would trail throughout.
