Chart notes

MOROLICIOUS set the pace from the start and was well handled, stayed in control down then backstretch and far turn, was in a long drive when challenged on the far turn then dug in gamely to hold sway while drifting out in deep stretch. TEXAS HOLDEM was stalking the pace while inside down the backstretch, saved ground on the far turn then was waiting for racing room nearing the quarter pole, was making a bid turning for home and ran up the heels of MOROLICIOUS and taken up, angled out to be two wide in upper stretch and was trying to gain ground but raced evenly in late stretch. GJALLARHORN was unhurried early on then started a run into the far turn, swung out to be five wide in upper stretch and was gaining ground to finished well. ASTA LAVISTA HONEY pressed the pace while two wide on the backstretch, made a bid on the far turn to mid stretch but faltered in late stretch. JOHN LOUIS' BEVO stalked the pace while four wide on the backstretch, made a bid four wide into the far turn to upper stretch then flattened out. TIZ BODHI BOY was stalking the pace while three wide on the backstretch then made a bid on the far turn and flattened out. KING ARTHUR RIDGE was carried out on the first turn then was outrun. UNCLE BUFF stumbled on the first turn then was pulled up entering the backstretch and was van off. A steward's inquiry was held concerning the stretch run. A claim of foul was lodged by the rider of TEXAS HOLDEM against the rider of MOROLICIOUS for interference in upper stretch. After reviewing the film's, no action was taken.
