Chart notes

ACERO settled in the three path into the first turn, was well placed through the backstretch run while tracking the decent pace, was steered four wide into the far turn, loomed three wide nearing the top of the lane and overtook RESERVE PROOF in upper stretch, shied from the right-handed whip at mid-stretch, held foes at bay to the final sixteenth and drew clear under hand urging in deep stretch. BOOMING BERNARDO was allowed to settle in the early stages, maintained his position while not far back, was roused three wide and came within aim nearing the quarter marker, ran evenly to mid-stretch, made a mild late gain in deep stretch, could not impact the winner in the final stages and was up in time to secure second. RESERVE PROOF was asked to show early speed and was prominent into the first turn, set a pressured pace while off of the rail into the backstretch run, carved out decent fractions while prompted to the half-mile marker, shook free into the far turn, was overtaken by ACERO in upper stretch, chased the winner into the final furlong, was outfinished for second in deep stretch and was clear for third at the wire. BRANNIGAN settled while saving ground in the early stages, was steered two wide into the far turn and gained ground nearing the quarter marker, was outrun into the stretch and did not offer a final response. MY DAD IS THIRSTY was prominent into the first turn and stalked the decent fractions while between runners, tracked the pace to the half-mile marker, slipped to the inside along the far turn and chased to the quarter pole, lost ground into the stretch and weakened in the final furlong. DAZZLE THE COMMAND broke out leaving the start and was off a step slowly, raced widest into the first turn and stalked the decent pace from a five wide path into the backstretch run, maintained position to the half-mile pole, lost ground while four wide on the far turn, was outrun to mid-stretch and weakened in the late stages. VINNIEBOB stalked the decent fractions from a ground saving position, was well placed through the backstretch run, could not keep pace along the far turn and gave way in the stretch. BUY THE RUMOR broke in a tangle and was away slowly, settled along the inside, was steered two then three wide into the stretch and did not factor. ZEE PERFECT STORY was forwardly placed in the early running while outside of rivals, pressed the decent pace through the backstretch run, lost position while three wide along the far turn and tired in the stretch drive.
