Chart notes
LIGHT THE LAMP tugged his way to the lead under a snug hold with five eighths remaining, continued to set the fractions up front easily racing on the turn, repelled a mild challenge under left hand urging with a furlong to go and held safe at the wire. FOUR ACES HIGH was unhurried early outside to see the field after the break, took up the chase with seven sixteenths to go outside, continued to keep a close eye on the frontrunning winner on the turn, loomed the threat in the four path in upper stretch, but could not gain on the winner running to the wire and had to settle for second best. GALVASTON tracked in hand on the rail down the back straight, had to tap on the brakes mildly on the rail into the turn, chased the top pair as they turned for home and showed some late energy to win the battle for third with an outside rival at the finish. SOUPER RIVER settled near the back three wide in a tight compact field at the half, offered a mild run outside of horses midpoint on the turn, was in the five path battling for the show award at the top of the lane and was outkicked by his inside competitor down the lane for the show money. EXCEED tracked in the two path with runners on either side down the backstretch, was shuffled between rivals to trail at the seven sixteenth marker, could not keep pace with foes running on the turn and was never a threat through the stretch drive.
