Chart notes

FORTE came away in good order, dropped just off the pace on the initial straightaway, moved from the two path to the rail going around the first turn, was rated just off the pace, drafted inside while in the pocket behind the pacesetter on the far turn, was asked at the quarter-pole then came out and bumped ANGEL OF EMPIRE multiple times to create room into upper stretch, bumped again with that foe while turned out and given one pop of a left-handed crop inside the three-sixteenths then was carried out by the pacesetter, switched to a right-handed crop while gaining between foes inside the furlong marker, drifted in while getting to the runner-up late and got up to narrowly prevail. SAUDI CROWN moved in while coaxed to the front, saved ground on the first turn, was well rated while setting the pace, raced inside on the far turn, was asked inside the five-sixteenths, drifted out significantly inside the three-sixteenths, maintained a short lead under a right-handed crop while under attack into the final furlong, took a straighter course while in front into the final sixteenth, was carried in late and denied while able to get the place. ANGEL OF EMPIRE went three then two wide on the first turn, stalked the pace on the outside, was asked at the seven-sixteenths pole, chased in the two path on the far turn, was bumped multiple times by FORTE and nudged out into upper stretch, bumped again with that foe while carried out outside the furlong marker then came under a right-handed crop, fought outside of the top two into the final furlong, drifted in some late and missed but was clear for the show. DISARM was hustled from the gate, saved ground on the first turn, settled under some urging, came under stronger encouragement late on the backstretch, traveled around the far turn in the two path while ridden along, was put to the crop near the five-sixteenths, angled out behind the vanguard in upper stretch then moved out further coming to the furlong marker, chased the top three on the outside to the finish and lacked the needed kick. HIT SHOW hit the outside of the gate and was off a bit slow, went three wide on the first turn, settled on the outside under coaxing, was roused for more outside the half-mile pole, chased three wide on the far turn then was driven four wide into the stretch, drifted out near the three-sixteenths then was carried out, chased outside into the final furlong and capitulated. FOLLOWING A STEWARDS' INQUIRY INTO THE STRETCH RUN, NO CHANGE WAS MADE TO THE ORDER OF FINISH
