Chart notes

IT'S ALEXUS went three-wide into the first turn, pressed the pace while five wide in the backstretch, moved up alongside LITTLE HARPER then match strides to the stretch drive, continued to battle on outside under steady urging refusing to relinquish control, and prevailed after a long hard drive. LITTLE HARPER saved ground while setting the pace, responded to pressure from IT'S ALEXUS, dueled inside through the stretch, gained an advantage midstretch but was narrowly denied after a hard-fought battle to the wire. WHISKARITA hit gate leaving, trailed the field while positioned from along the rail, responded to handling through the stretch, and finished well for show. SKY DESTINY stalked five wide in the backstretch, asked to quicken in the far turn, and failed to threaten in the drive. BABS DELIGHT stalked three to four wide, and tired. BABS DELIGHT was reported by the Official Veterinarian as having bled.
