Chart notes

COLONEL VARGO was hustled away from the gate and established the early advantage, set a decent pace into the turn while off of the rail, was pressed to the quarter marker by MR. FIGHTER, turned away that rival into upper stretch, kept to task under steady urging to the final sixteenth and held safely in a drive to prevail. MR. FIGHTER raced close to the decent early pace, pressed COLONEL VARGO along the bend while outside of that rival, was turned away into upper stretch and lost ground to COLONEL VARGO nearing the furlong marker, was held at bay by the winner into deep stretch and was clear of the rest for second. LIVERMORE HEAT chased the decent early pace, raced two deep to the quarter marker, made a mild advance along the rail heading to the furlong pole, lacked a final kick in deep stretch and was clear in the end for third. BIG DIFFERENCE lacked early speed, raced outside of a rival along the bend, was steered three wide for the drive and did not offer a late rally. EXTRA INNINGS bobbled at the start and was away a step slowly, chased the decent pace from the inside, tipped two wide for the drive, lacked a response in the stretch run and tired.
