Chart notes

WOOD RIVER settled off the pace and the inside, unhurried into the far turn three wide, covered up in some traffic with a quarter to run, came four wide and clear into the lane, set down, late bid outside the leader, proved narrowly best. LITTLE ROCKY in the second flight inside, inched closer through the second turn, rail bid nearing the furlong grounds, took over, shook clear, came out, responded when the winner came alongside in the waning strides, missed. MY LIL DUDE broke in, was straightened to track in the second flight off the inside, mild challenge a furlong out, lacked a closing punch to finish up best of the rest. RUN ON ACES four wide in the first turn when with the main body, continued outside, four wide into the second bend, floated out five wide by the winner into the stretch, finished up evenly while improving position a bit. MO CREDO raced in the second flight toward the inside early, remained in the second flight while between horses and outside the runner up into the far turn, lacked a serious closing response. CAJUN CARLOS narrowly set the pace toward the inside, in the two path while showing the say into the lane, allowed the runner the inside when straightened for home then began to weaken when headed by that rival. MY PAL SWEET broke in to tighten up PUTTHEHAMMERDOWN, raced four wide when moving to press the issue into the first turn, continued to force the issue up front in the run up the backstretch, faltered in the drive. WHEELS TURNING void of speed, fanned six wide into the lane, remained back in failing to menace. UNITEDAPPEAL broke back, lacked speed, angled five wide into the lane, failed to muster a rally. PUTTHEHAMMERDOWN bobbled then took up when in tight, remained back and was never a threat. A CLAIM OF FOUL BY THE RIDER OF PUTTHEHAMMERDOWN AGAINST MY LIL DUDE FOR ALLEGED INTERFERENCE AT THE START WAS NOT ALLOWED.
