Chart notes

HALF COURT SAM was reluctant to load, stalked the dueling pair down the backstretch, moved up five wide into the upper stretch and just got up under all out pressure. MORE FIREWATER dueled for the early lead from the inside, dug in and just missed in a game effort. FRANKS DEHERE was also reluctant to load, race mid pack early on, moved up from the outside and surged late in a game finish. DIABOLICAL RULER dueled for the early lead from the outside of foe and kept on willingly to the wire. OFFENSIVE raced off the early pace, raced six to seven wide into the upper stretch and moved up to improve position. MAJORWAYHOME chased the early pace while racing three wide, angled out to race from the outside in the drive and raced evenly with no closing run. STRYDER settled off the early pace, raced four deep near the three sixteenths pole, angled in and never threatened. MCTHANKS was off very slow, raced with the second flight after the troubling beginning, raced three to two wide in the lane and threatened. COLOR ME GONE stalked the pace and weakened while racing near the rail in the stretch run. SANTIAGO'S TOWER was off slowly, then veered to the inside soon after the start and unseated his rider. A stewards inquiry was filed to review the start and deemed Santiago's Tower had fair chance at the break and no change.
