Chart notes

IDIOMATIC stumbled badly at the start, recovered and got into stride, advanced on the inside on the backstretch, made a four wide bid for command on the turn, went on even terms and dueled on the outside of CLASSY EDITION, then had a long stretch drive and prevailed late to prove best under left handed crop urging and strong handling. CLASSY EDITION was three wide into the first turn while setting the pace, then was pressured on the inside by BATTLE BLING, shook off that rival and was clear entering the far turn, then was confronted by the winner to her outside on the turn, was ridden along to match that bid and dueled for command to the wire gamely but missed. MORNING MATCHA was taken back and crossed over to the inside, advanced on the turn but lacked a winning rally while clearly besting the rest. ROYAL TAKE CHARGE was three wide into the first turn, tracked the pace three to four wide and then tired the final quarter of a mile. GAMESTONKS was four wide into the first turn, settled three to four wide and tired. BATTLE BLING stalked the early pace and then went up to press the pace on the inside but stopped.
