Chart notes

VITEMENT dueled for the lead inside of SONOFASHIP around the turn, inched free of him in the two path in upper stretch, and held firm from his outer re-bidding counterpart through the final furlong. SONOFASHIP sparred for the lead outside of the eventual winner around the turn, briefly failed to keep pace with that one while entering the lane in the three path, yet chased that foe well thereafter while attempting a re-bid, but was kept at bay. BEAUDACIOUS COLTON stalked while forwardly placed two wide and between horses, vied for show with an outer rival while exchanging bumps in hopes of shifting outside of the top pair, and prevailed for that position in the final sixteenth. LET'S GO MARK nudged the get upon leaving it, recovered to chase outside of rivals into the turn, moved forward to press the embattled leading pair at the three furlong pole, but failed to keep pace with them while spinning into the lane in the four path, exchanged bumps with an inner rival while dueling for show through the lane, but yielded that position late. PRINCE OF POWER took a bump from an outer rival at the start, failed to sustain position inside of rivals approaching the turn, raced off of the pace in the two path around the turn, shifted to the five path entering the lane, tipped to the seven path in upper stretch, and moved up. SUGA STEVE stalked along the inside, but only managed to chase in upper stretch before giving way. LOUDERMILK broke a step slow, tracked four wide, floated to the five path entering the lane, and weakened. FAVORITISM broke slowly before mildly shying from an inner rival at the start, lacked speed in the four path around the turn, fanned to the seven path entering the lane, and made little impact. MI OSCURO SECRETO bumped an inner rival at the start, failed to keep pace with the field while subtly shuffled behind a rival approaching the turn, then trailed around the bend and got outrun.
