Chart notes

FLIGHTLINE pressed LIFE IS GOOD into the first turn, raced in the four path along the first turn and backed off down the backstretch into a stalking position, began to pull away from the field with LIFE IS GOOD down the backstretch and in the far turn, made a bid nearing the lane, quickly took over command once in the stretch, romped down the lane under brisk urging and was in hand during the final stages. OLYMPIAD raced in the three path along the first turn while back early on, was in the five path into the lane and rallied down the lane for place in the late stages. TAIBA was unhurried racing along the two path in the first turn, chased the leaders along the far turn, was in the four path entering the lane before lodging a bid for place down the lane but did not have enough for that position in the final stages. RICH STRIKE was reserved early on, raced in the three path along the first turn, was carried out by EPICENTER down the backstretch, moved to the rail and saved ground along the far turn and moved up in the stretch run. LIFE IS GOOD set the pace from the outset, raced in the two path along the first turn, pulled away from the the field with FLIGHTLINE down the backstretch and the far turn, raced in the three path entering the lane, was overtaken once in the stretch and gave way late in the drive. HOT ROD CHARLIE chased the pace early, was in the three path into the lane and faded to the wire. HAPPY SAVER raced on the inside along the first turn and trailed the field while far back, was in the four path into the lane and leveled off late in the stretch run. EPICENTER was pulled up midway through the backstretch and vanned off after the race. THE THREE QUARTERS TIME WAS UPDATED AFTER VIDEO REVIEW. Copyright 2026 Equibase Company LLC. All Rights Reserved.
