Chart notes

LET'S GO MARK set the pace inside of a pair of prompting foes into the turn, inched a narrowly clear margin leaving the three furlong pole, edged away from an outer pursuer in upper stretch and held sway while hanging on his left lead. ASTRONOMICO pressed three wide, took aim on the leader two wide nearing the lane, but failed to keep pace with that one while shifting ground inwardly in upper stretch and was second best. IN A JAM prompted the pace two wide and between horses entering the turn, but failed to keep pace with them nearing the lane and held show from an outer pair through the final furlong. COULDITBEMAJIC was severely impeded by an outer rival at the start causing him to transfer trouble to an inner rival as well, lacked early speed in the aftermath, launched progress in the five path entering the turn, tucked down to the three path turning for hoe before tipping back to the four path in upper stretch, then sustained his advance to bid for show in the final furlong but missed. TIZ MY HERO steadied from crowded quarters between horses approaching the nine-sixteenths pole, was relegated to pursue from midpack in the two path into the turn, gained fourth from an inner rival at the five sixteenths pole, but only chased evenly between horses through the lane while lacking a bid. MUGATU broke inwardly and greatly hampered a pair of inner rivals at the start, trailed in the three path, advanced in the five path turning for home and improved position entering the final furlong. LEGEND OF THE NILE chased while forward along the inside, but failed to keep pace with the leading group entering the turn and faded. BAYTOWN CHATTERBOX lacked early speed despite being strongly hustled along by the rider early on, remained under urging while off of the pace in the four path around the bend and tired. BOLD FORCE took firm contact from outer rivals causing him to spot the leaders multiple lengths at the start, then never got involved along the inside. LUCKY PAL hopped slightly while off slow, chased from midpack in the three path and between horses, but weakened turning for home before being eased through the lane.
