Chart notes

HOT ROD CHARLIE prompted the pace setter from the outside, vied with that foe around the far turn while taking that bend in the three path, forged an advantage in upper stretch, led as an outer RICH STRIKE loomed a danger nearing the furlong grounds, met that foe's bid at that juncture, got headed leaving that station, yet fought on gallantly, gamely regained even terms while getting leaned on nearing the wire, and prevailed via a tight photo finish. RICH STRIKE laid off of the pace three wide, moved forward to a tracking position down the backstretch, pursued outside of the top pair around the far turn, took aim on those rivals in upper stretch, exchanged brushes with an inner HAPPY SAVER while keeping that foe hemmed in as they inched closer, sustained a bid for the lead at the furlong grounds, gained an advantage from HOT ROD CHARLIE soon after, but failed to kick away from his inner game counterpart late, shifted in and leaned on that re-bidding foe nearing the wire, and got outfinished. KING FURY trailed along the inside early on, moved out of last entering the backstretch, saved ground around the far turn as well, then sustained a rail chase through the lane to reach show inside the final sixteenth. HAPPY SAVER stalked along the inside around the first turn, shifted a path off of the fence entering the backstretch, chased the leading pair around the far turn while under steady urging and inside of RICH STRIKE, shifted course outside of the top pair entering the lane, but exchanged brushes with his outer counterpart as they inched closer to the top pair, got outkicked while hemmed in behind those foes at the furlong grounds, and yielded. ART COLLECTOR set the pace, sparred inside of HOT RODE CHARLIE while just off of the inside around the far turn, but was headed by that foe in upper stretch, and weakened through the late stages. CHESS CHIEF tracked two wide and between horses, but retreated to trail the field entering the backstretch, and made little impact thereafter.
