Chart notes

BRIGHTWORK vied along the inside of BARBTOURAGE, took a bump from that foe at the five sixteenths pole, yet sustained stride to continue the battle in upper stretch, gained an advantage at the furlong grounds, and drove clear. BARBTOURAGE dueled for the lead with an inner vying rival into the turn, bumped that foe while keeping her in tight at the five sixteenths pole, sparred as the battle carried on in upper stretch, but failed to keep pace leaving the furlong grounds, and held place. CRIMSON ADVOCATE chased from the five path and between horses, failed to sustain position at the five sixteenths pole, tucked to the two path nearing the lane, delayed a lead change until called upon to do so at the three sixteenths pole, gained slowly while asked to shift outside of the top two vie a strong right hand rein at the furlong grounds, brushed an outer rival in the process, and stayed on well. TITANIA'S DREAM was last away, quickly recovered to eye-catchingly gain inside of foes entering the turn, achieved a tracking position from three three path and between horses at the five sixteenths pole, took aim outside of the embattled leading pair in upper stretch, but failed to sustain progress soon after, took a brush from an inner rival at the furlong grounds, and faded. ARGAN came out at the start, chased in the four path around the turn, and gave way. JUST AN OPINION broke in midpack, chased the leaders leaving the chute while failing to sustain forward position, faded while tucking to the four path around the turn, then gained stride in upper stretch, and rallied between horses at the furlong grounds. BOOTSY'S MERLOT was bit a crowded between horses at the start, then saved ground off of the pace, but to no avail. UNMATCHED laid off of the pace two wide, and failed to factor. WHATTA WORLD steadied between horses leaving the chute, trailed in the four path around the turn, and moved up. STAIRSTEP TOHEAVEN broke slowly, yet gained from off of the pace in the six path around the turn, fanned to the eight path nearing the lane, but flattened out in upper stretch, and tired on her left lead. LITTLE MUSIC tracked in the six path, and weakened. BANDIT QUEEN lacked speed three wide, steadied at the three furlong pole, and was outrun.
