Chart notes

FATHER RED raced in the four path as he staked the leaders from the outside of the second tier of horses, moved up at the half mile pole, launched a bid at the three eighths pole, was still closing in on the leader in the upper stretch, was kept on point and drew beside to challenge for the lead at the eighth pole, took over from the and was hand ridden to the wire for the win. HAPPY BOY ROCKET stalked the early speed from the three path, launched a bid at the three eights pole, raced between horses, challenged for the lead at the five sixteenth pole, was in the lead at the quarter pole, was challenged by a closing rival and gave up the lead but continued to run and was bale to hold on to second place. CHIEF CHEETAH raced from mid pack on the rail, started to edge out on the backside into the three and four path, launched a bit at the three eighths pole, split rivals, shifted out into the seven path nearing the quarter pole, closed down the stretch under encouragement and made up ground coming away with third today. AMERICAN SMOOTH vied for the lead, led in a set with another determined front runner, set the pace while racing on the rail, then flattened out near the quarter pole. STOCKPILER was off a bit slow, was allowed to settle in hands along the rail, launched a bid at the three eighths pole, improved position through the turn, was still off the pace in the upper stretch, shifted out into the six path at the eighth pole, found his best stride and gained ground with each stride. WESLEYAN was sharp in the first few jumps, asked to rate through the first turn, was in a stalking position down the back side, launched a bid at the three eights pole, saved ground through out but had no rally in the stretch. BOULDERING was off the pace early shifted into the five path, started to improve position at the half mile pole, launched a bid at the three eighths pole, raced between foes and moved into the upper stretch but had no kick. MAJOR DEAL was off of the pace and in the six path, improved position on the back side, was six wide in the turn, but to no avail. INFINITE MORO vied for the lead from the far outside, shifted into the two path while matching another rival for the lead, co led and participated in pace setting early then tired at the five sixteenth pole and retreated.
