Chart notes

TAKE A CHANCE was hustled early, had the lead on the turn and from the three path through the stretch was kept to task. CORE stalked the early leader and was roused from the inside on the turn but from the four path at the top of the stretch was second best. PAPERBACK HERO was in range, had a mild gain on the turn and from the six path at the top of the stretch was up for show. ACE DESTROYER was away alertly and a factor on the turn but from the five path at the top of the stretch leveled off. HALF LIT was in touch and saved ground on the turn but was not a factor. ONE PUNCH CHARLIE was off slow and showed nothing while outrun.
