Chart notes

THIN WHITE DUKE four to five paths off the inside down the backstretch, tucked to the two path through the turn coming under coaxing at the five-sixteenths, angled five wide into upper stretch, offered up a good finish closing stoutly outside and was just up in the shadow of the wire to score. DANCING BUCK coaxed from the start, chased four then three wide under coaxing from the five-sixteenths, swung five wide for home, rallied to take command just inside the eighth pole, dug in under a drive under threat and was nailed on the line. FAUCI coaxed from the start, raced six paths off the inside down the backstretch and then three wide through the turn under coaxing from the five-sixteenths, angled six wide into upper stretch, closed well outside to secure the show honors. VOODOO ZIP chased four to five wide patiently handled until set down continuing four to five wide for home, angled in near the eighth pole offering up a mild bid, then flattened out in the late stages. PROVEN STRATEGIES chased three then two wide under coaxing from the three-eighths, angled four wide for home, weakened. THE CRITICAL WAY hustled from the gate, showed the way coaxed along in the two path down the backstretch and then along the inside through the turn, spun three wide for home, got collared just inside the eighth pole and weakened to the finish. BIG PACKAGE four paths off the inside down the backstretch, tucked to the two path through the turn and was patiently handled until roused cutting the corner into upper stretch, offered little and trailed throughout.
