Chart notes
BEST IDEA went three wide under coaxing around the first turn, settled well off the pace, was ridden along passing the half-mile pole, went five wide under strong encouragement around the final turn, gained passing the five-sixteenths, rallied outside into upper stretch, closed well down the center of the track in the final furlong and got up in the final strides to prevail. DR. BLUTE went to the front, was well rated while setting the pace in the two path, had WIN FOR GOLD move up to challenge him at the five-eighths when let off the fence by the rider of FORTY COMETS, vied inside that foe in the two path to the five-sixteenths, shook clear outside the quarter-pole, extended the advantage while set down into upper stretch, remained clear under the crop into the final sixteenth but was denied in the final strides while well clear for the place. WHITTINGTON PARK went three then four wide around the first turn, settled on the outside, was roused four wide on the far turn, chased into upper stretch, brushed with a foe inside the furlong marker and lacked the needed response while best of the rest. DANGEROUS EDGE went four then three wide on the first turn, settled off the pace, was asked leaving the backstretch, rounded the far turn in the two path under urging, drifted out in upper stretch, brushed with an opponent inside the furlong marker and weakened. BLITZ TO WIN was reserved under restraint on the inside, came under urging around the seven-sixteenths, saved ground into the stretch and had nothing left. FOREVER WICKED dropped well behind the rest of the field, saved ground on the turns and was no factor. FORTY COMETS raced in the three path around the first turn, had the rider taken several looks to his inside while remaining well off the rail and providing relief to a rank WIN FOR GOLD who was stuck behind the pacesetter down the backstretch, allowed that foe easily off the rail at the five-eighths, came up empty in the three then four path on the far turn and retreated. RHYMES LIKE DIMES went five wide on the first turn, settled on the outside, was urged five then six wide on the far turn and failed to respond. WIN FOR GOLD was hustled from the gate then taken in hand while skimming the rail early, became very rank and raced under steadying restraint behind the leader through the first turn, continued rank behind the leader under stout restraint through the opening three furlongs, moved out while given free passage off the inside at the five-eighths, gained to make an outside bid at the nine-sixteenths, vied in the three path while outside of the runner-up around the far turn, dropped back late on that bend and faltered.
