Chart notes

POSITIVITY stalked from outside, went three wide into the turn, bid from outside at the five-sixteenths pole, dueled into the stretch, started to put BUS BUZZ away at the eighth pole and drew away. BUS BUZZ broke out and brushed rival, went up to take control then cleared outer rival at the nine-sixteenths pole, challenged from outside midway around the bend, dueled into the lane, fought into the final furlong before yielding to the winner but was clearly second best. FATHER DELAY bumped leaving the gate, settled off the pace, traveled two to three wide around the bend and was along for the show. HARD TO FIGURE bumped with FATHER DELAY at the start, chased two wide around the bend and got outfinished for the show honors. THE BIG WAM was off slow to begin and trailed up the backstretch, rounded the turn three then two wide, had one beat entering the lane, moved in and kept on to improve placings. WILL BE chased along the rail into the turn, tipped two wide leaving the bend and weakened. NAVY MAN got bumped between rivals leaving the gate, chased four wide into the turn, came five wide into the lane and proved no menace. SAINT IVES climbed early and dropped back off the pace, saved ground through the turn, angled out in the stretch and failed to make an impact. HOT ROD RUMBLE bumped leaving the gate, pressed the pace from outside then chased past the nine-sixteenths pole, started to weaken on the turn, eased in the lane and walked off.
