Chart notes

VALUE ENGINEER angled in towards the rail to set the pace into the first turn, led the way down the backstretch under a steady hand ride, cleared the far turn and held sway in the home stretch to prove much the best. FINN AND BRENNAN saved ground throughout the first half, then was moving up gamely while five wide on the far turn to close willingly in the stretch but it wasn't enough. DEEP STRIKE chased the pace from the inside throughout the backstretch, then came out three wide on the far turn to rally in the stretch and closed well for the show prize. INTOLERABLE broke outwardly at the start then tracked the pace from the inside close behind the pace setter, then lost some ground throughout the far turn, rebid in the upper stretch and had more in the end. PLANET was bumped at the start then chased the pace while two wide down the backstretch, was urging steadily on the far turn from the four path, then bid in the stretch and needed more in the end. STELLAR VINO settled along the inside early, then bid on the far turn and was no threat. EXTRA HALO pressed the pace from the two path into the turn and down the backstretch, continued to hold the second position throughout the far turn under a strong drive, was extinguished and weakened in the stretch. CHEESESTEAK settled along the inside and no menace. SEKT settled at the back of the pack in the two path then continued to faded throughout and failed to rally.
