Chart notes

MISSION KEY showed good early while being handled nicely from the inside to set the early pace, had clear lead past the quarter pole and widened late under steady handling. ALVY raced three deep through the first turn, angled in to race in rail down the backstretch under a firm hold, hard ridden near the seven sixteenths pole, raced two to three deep in the stretch and was no match for the winner. ESPRESSO LUNGO settled off the early pace along the inside, angled to race off the inside near the three sixteenths pole, lugged in thereafter to the rail and had no late gain. HOP AND SCOTCH stalked the early pace, raced five wide into the upper stretch and weakened. BLACKWATER FALLS dropped back early, raced three wide past the quarter pole and lacked a bid. NEVER SILENCED pressed the pace, tired readily and was eased up on in the stretch.
