Chart notes

CHEEKY TICO tracked the pace on the outside, engaged the leader in the three path around the turn, took the advantage coming to the quarter-pole, drifted in while shaking clear into upper stretch, responded well under the crop into the final furlong and drew away under strong urging. MIDNIGHT CHROME was hustled from the gate then showed speed, shied in nearing the seven-eighths, showed the way down the backstretch, was asked in the two path under threat from the winner to the outside on the turn, lost the advantage to that foe at the quarter-pole, moved out into upper stretch, chased into the final furlong and proved no match then just held the place. GHOSTLYPRINCE made contact with a foe at the start, settled off the early pace, moved closer with five furlongs to run, chased inside around the turn, came out into upper stretch and just missed the place while clear for the show. PAPI ON ICE dropped well back early, angled in leaving the chute, went two then three wide around the turn, drifted inward while remaining on his inside lead in upper stretch, swapped to the proper lead outside the sixteenth-pole and failed to threaten. SORPRESO was hustled from the gate then taken in hand while inside of a foe around the seven-eighths, dropped back while eased off the pace with six furlongs to run then moved out near the five-eighths, passed the nine-sixteenths under urging, went around the turn in the two to three path, came out into upper stretch and tired. BERT BERT BERT hit the inside of the gate at the start then bobbled hard while making contact with a foe, nearly unseated the rider as he was dislodged from his left iron and dangled over the right-side of his mount, had the jockey show great athleticism to regain balance in the center of the saddle then reached down to get his left foot back in the iron, spotted the field many lengths in the process, went three then two wide around the turn and trailed.
