Chart notes

BIG BANG BLUE set the pace, took command on the turn and from the three path through the stretch was much the best. ONLY BELIEVE tracked the early leaders from the outside and raced evenly on the turn but from the five path at the stretch was no match for the winner. LUNATICA was well back and trailed the field on the turn but from the seven path at the top of the stretch was up for show. MISS MOLLY LALOU settled off the pace and had a mild gain on the turn but from the six path at the top of the stretch was no real threat. HEAR ME KNOCKING stalked the early leader but lost ground on the turn and dropped back through the stretch.
