Chart notes

OCALA DREAM just off the inside tracking from near the rear of the field, came under coaxing near the quarter pole, angled five wide into upper stretch, closed well to issue a challenge through the final furlong taking command near the sixteenth marker, then edged clear to the finish to prevail. AGENT CREED settled unhurried just off the inside near the rear of the field, came under coaxing at the five-sixteenths, went seven wide into upper stretch and offered up a mild kick to secure the place honors. LET'S GO BIG BLUE coaxed from the gate, chased just off the inside from just off the pace, came under coaxing along the inside at the five-sixteenths, swung three wide into upper stretch, leaned on at the three-sixteenths nudging KING OF COMEDY and ran on to secure the show honors. KING OF COMEDY broke in at the start bumping STRAIGHT ARROW, chased three then two wide coming under coaxing at the five-sixteenths, swung four wide into upper stretch, got nudged by the aforementioned foe with three-sixteenths to go, improved position staying on to the finish. STRAIGHT ARROW broke out a step at the start and was bumped by KING OF COMEDY breaking inwards and was away last conceding three lengths to the front before settling into stride, saved ground near the rear of the field, came under coaxing near the five-sixteenths, cut the corner into upper stretch and was paused in behind RINALDI and then ROUGH DRAFT after tipping to the two path just inside the three-sixteenths, awaited a pair of rivals to clear outside after tipping to the three path a furlong out, tipped out to the four then five path near the sixteenth marker in the clear for the first time in the stretch and was tepidly urged by the rider through to the finish. KLICKITAT tracked the pace along the inside coming under coaxing at the five-sixteenths, angled five to six wide into upper stretch, stayed on one paced to the finish but was outkicked. ROUGH DRAFT three then two wide in closest aim of the leader, came under coaxing near the quarter pole, spun just off the inside into upper stretch, dug in under a drive taking narrow and brief command a furlong from home, got collared nearing the sixteenth pole and weakened to the finish. CITIZEN K coaxed from the start, tracked the pace along the inside coming under coaxing near the quarter pole, swung three wide into upper stretch and offered no response. RINALDI coaxed from the gate, showed the way in hand along the inside, came under coaxing at the five-sixteenths, took the inside route into upper stretch, dug in under threat from a host of rivals and was collared a furlong from home, then weakened through to the finish.
