Chart notes

AWESOME BID went to the front to set a pressured pace, was headed at the five sixteenths pole, dug in to draw clear and just lasted. A GEM IS A GEM tracked the leaders to the middle of the turn then angled out to two or three wide at the quarter pole and moved between horses at the three sixteenths pole, bumped with outside rival but kept on for a late run but was not enough. LAUNCHED vied for the lead from three wide to the middle of the turn then engaged the leader nearing the five sixteenths pole and match strides to the three sixteenths pole and tired. JUSTIN SPEIGHT prompted the pace to mid turn and gave way. SEEULATERGATOR was off the pace in the two path to the quarter pole, moved out to four wide in upper stretch and was bumped by inside rival but lacked a late kick. CREATIVE LETTERS had no early speed, made a mild bid in the stretch but was not a factor.
