Chart notes

PUNCH HARD rated under a firm hold early, loomed up to take aim nearing the three sixteenths, had to wait for racing room, split rivals just past the eighth pole and surged clear late under strong handling. MADISON LUVS DUKE rated along early from the outside of rivals, was ridden along three wide nearing the five sixteenths pole and kept on gamely to the wire. MUCHO MOJO prompt the early leader two deep from the outside, dug in through the stretch run and finished willingly to the wire. SMOKIN' HOT showed good early foot from the inside to set a pressured early pace and weakened a bit the final eighth of a mile. GULLANE settled two deep off the early going and lacked a bid.
