Chart notes

NATIONHEART saved ground setting the pace in hand, opened clear entering the stretch and drew off to win as the rider pleased. CAPTAIN DASHI was allowed to settle in stride while racing two-wide and finished strongly. BENNYANDTHECHICKS hopped in the air slightly at the start then saved ground while being reserved off the pace, slipped through during the drive and finished in a mild rally. DIAMOND WILLOW prompted the pace set by Nationheart to the stretch and weakened. LASTBESTHOPE was off a step slow, moved up four-wide on the turn, came five-wide into the stretch and failed to seriously threaten. IOWA KID was forwardly placed for a half mile while racing three-wide and then gave way.
