Chart notes

TUSKEGEE CAT tracked three wide, bid at the half mile pole, drew clear well in hand turning for home, drifted out and across a pursuing BATUKHAN (IRE)'s path at the furlong grounds, yet held well thereafter. BATUKHAN (IRE) tracked along the inside, took aim outside of the newly clear leader in upper stretch, altered course inside of that drifting foe at the furlong pole, but failed to gain in the late stages while proving second best. YONO pursued from midpack two wide, chased in the four path around the far turn, and ran on to gain show entering the final furlong. NICHOLAS JONES broke a step slow, trailed in the four path, shifted out turning for home before drifting to the eight path entering the lane, and rallied. TROPIC STORM stalked two wide, bid along with an outer rival at the half mile pole, but failed to keep pace with that one turning for home, and tired. WICCA WISDOM lacked speed in the two path, shifted to the five path and between horses entering the lane, and lacked a bid. WRITEITONTHEICE broke a step slowly before bumping with an outer rival, lacked speed in the three path, spun into the lane in the six path and between horses, and made little impact. PAID IN FULL set the pace along the inside, got headed by a pair of rivals entering the far turn and weakened. BORN FLAWLESS pursued from midpack under a snug hold along the inside, but was through early. MOTOWN MISSILE broke a step slow, bumped with an inner rival soon after the start, made little impact three wide and was eased through the lane. THE RIDER OF BATUKHAN (IRE) CLAIMED FOUL AGAINST THE RIDER OF TUSKEGEE CAT FOR INTERFERENCE IN MIDSTRETCH; BUT THE OBJECTION WAS DISALLOWED BY THE STEWARDS.
