Chart notes

LION KINGDOM was allowed to settle trailing the pack in the early stages of the race, continued to see the field in upper stretch, quickly burst between rivals two deep at the eighth pole and was full of run late getting up in time just a few jumps before the wire. ROCKET JOE COPPER rated kindly while well in hand on the fence at the half behind the leaders, waited on the rail throughout the final turn waiting for a seam, took command in the four path at the sixteenth pole and was caught nearing the wire by the fast closing winner in the end. MAYITO stalked near the back two wide at the half, was asked for more run with three furlongs to go, angled out widest in the seven path entering the stretch and was gaining to the wire getting up in time to win the nod for third in a three horse photo. BLUE MAX had a good spot just outside tracking the top duo down the backstretch, battled between for the front in the two path at the top of the lane and fought on willingly to the wire holding for a minor share. MASTER SPY threw his head as the gate opened , travelled four wide into the first turn, settled in mid pack four deep down the backside, bid four wide with three eighths remaining, poked his head in front brief turning for home and gave way between foes in deep stretch. STOP THE HUMBUG settled on the rail near the back at the half mile pole, was on hold inside behind horses through the far turn, was pushed out to the six path for the stretch drive and was not involved late while finishing up evenly with an eighth left to run. HIATUS was reined back on the rail through the first turn to track the early frontrunner down the back straight, could not keep position with others midpoint on the far turn and was not a factor running in the stretch. BIG INVESTMENT took the field into the first turn clearing to the rail by the time the field entered the backstretch, set the fractions into the final turn, was collared by multiple rivals at the quarter pole outside and stopped on the fence at the furlong marker.
