Chart notes

GREELEY AND BEN coaxed from the gate, showed the way three wide under pressure from HAPPY FARM to the outside, came under coaxing nearing the quarter pole, angled four to five wide into upper stretch floating out his prompter, came out two paths near the eighth pole to look his main danger in the eye and dug in bumping with HAPPY FARM forty yards from the finish, then gamely fended off that rival to prevail by a neck. HAPPY FARM bobbled at the break under coaxing and pressed the aforementioned foe from the outside four paths off the rail down the backstretch and through the turn coming under coaxing just inside the five-sixteenths, swung five to six wide into upper stretch when GREELY AND BEN tipped out to his inside, floated to the seven path straightened away getting separation of two paths, had that rival come out to be eyeball to eyeball through the final furlong, dug in gamely getting bumped with forty yards to the finish and was ultimately bested at the end. BIG ENGINE coaxed from the start, chased just off the inside under a ride from the seven-sixteenths, angled five wide into upper stretch and offered up mild late foot to secure the show honors. HERO TIGER chased four to five wide under a ride from the three-eighths, angled six to seven wide into upper stretch and weakened in the late stages. MONTAUK DADDY bobbled at the break under hustling, chased six then five wide down the backstretch, tucked four then three wide into the turn before making his way to the two path near the three-eighths having been under coaxing for a sixteenth of a mile, continued just off the inside into upper stretch and tired.
