Chart notes

CAHIRA'S BLESSING took control from the start, was left alone unchallenged on the turn, opened up on her foes at the furlong marker and cruised home to the finish. HOT CARGO travelled in midfield two off the rail in the beginning, shifted out six wide at the two furlong pole, closed in well on rivals with the exception of the long gone winner through the stretch and held safe at the wire for the place share. FLOWERS 'N BERRIES broke out at the start, was reined back to get to the rail trailing the field down the backside, saved ground at the back through the turn, waited behind runners looking for a seam in upper stretch, had no room nearing the eighth pole, finally shifted out to the four path in deep stretch for clear run and finished up strongly just missing the place share at the wire. SOUPER SINCLAIR watched the pacesetter with rivals on either side of her travelling on the turn, continued to be involved up front in upper stretch three deep between foes and fought on the the wire only to fade late having to settle for a minor role in the end. STRIKE THE POSE tracked behind the loose leader on the fence running on the turn, was in with a chance for a share in the two path in upper stretch and could only be one paced thru the lane offering a mild finish. HELLUVA HOLIDAY travelled in the middle of the pack inside, angled four wide at the top of the lane, lost paths in mid stretch, found clear running room five wide at the furlong marker and had no finish to give. SOCIETY'S KAT stalked near the rear two wide in the early going, angled out widest in the seven path for the long stretch drive, could not get interested running to the finish and was a non factor. RIFLING tracked the frontrunner three wide outside on the turn, still was in the mix in the three path straightening out for the drive and stopped between foes at the three sixteenth marker.
