Chart notes

J B GRAY broke sharp and was able to set the pace while being pressured by another foe, saved ground while racing along the rail, was un hurried through the turn and fell back, was asked at the sixteenth pole came back on late, battled with the leader in deep stretch and was victorious. SILKY'S DANCE settled off the early pace, was given time to find his stride while racing in the three path, was cued at the quarter pole where he responded with a nice turn of foot, came along the side of another competitor, battled with that one, took the lead, was challenged by another foe who slipped up the rail late, battled again for the win but came up short today. ROCK STAR ALEX laid just off the pace early, took the lead after the half mile pole from the three path, was challenged by another foe moving into the stretch, battled in the upper stretch and faded. SOUTH AL SPARKY was off slow, raced along the outside, was asked at the half mile pole, advanced into good striking position then faltered late.
