Chart notes

LIL NAS sped to the front in the two path then cleared inner rival and moved inside, showed the way along the rail through the far turn, urged right then left handed in the drive and held safely. SO I'M TOLD got put in tight chasing between foes into the first turn, steadied behind FORGIVING SPIRIT around the bend, stalked the pace from inside, tipped out in the lane, finished willingly but could not reach the winner. TALKLESSWORKMORE traveled in the two path while racing a bit keen early, raced in range between rivals on the far turn, moved inside leaving that bend, summoned a mild rally and gained the show. MISCHIEVOUS PATH broke well then quickly dropped back, trailed on the inside, swung out on the far turn and entered the lane four to five wide, bumped with SHORTMAN near the sixteenth pole and improved position. SHORTMAN chased two then three wide on the first turn, raced three deep through the second bend, bumped with MISCHIEVOUS PATH outside the sixteenth pole and could not rally. BEAUDACIOUS broke a step slow in the beginning, had to check behind a rival on the first turn, chased three then four wide on the far turn and failed to menace. FORGIVING SPIRIT was a bit fractious in the gate, prominent early along the rail then pulled and became a bit rank on the first turn, switched off the inside to give chase in the two path and weakened in the stretch.
