Chart notes

OKALOOSA was forwardly placed on the outside, went three wide on the turn, rallied to the lead in upper stretch and just held under strong urging. SCHERZANDO bumped with a rival at the start, was urged along off the pace, angled from the two path to the four path near the five-sixteenths, came five wide into the stretch, rallied outside to make a bid in the final furlong but just missed while clear for the place. BUSTINO SANTINO was urged along off the pace, went around the turn in the two path, was driven four wide into the stretch, chased the winner in the drive and was outfinished while able to get the show. TWIRLING VINE settled off the pace, saved ground on the turn, moved out in upper stretch and improved position. EGYPTIAN QUEST broke out at the start, was urged along off the pace, went three wide on the turn and lacked the needed kick. KY THIRTY WON broke out at the start, was urged along on the outside, went three wide on the turn, spun four wide into the stretch and lacked the needed response. KERN RIVER was well placed just off the pace, saved ground on the turn, waited behind the leaders into upper stretch, dropped back into the final furlong and came up empty. SCARAMANGA was away alertly, showed in front early then pressed the pace on the outside, vied in the two path on the turn, dropped back in upper stretch and tired. LOOKIN' TO WIN brushed the inside of the gate at the start then bumped with a foe, saved ground on the turn and was no factor. WHISKEY AND WINE bumped with a foe at the start, moved up to set the pace under pressure to his outside, vied along the rail on the turn, lost the advantage in upper stretch and gave way. KID EMERALD broke inward and was off very slow, spotted the front many lengths, saved ground on the turn, struck the hind-end of the loose rival in upper stretch, swerved out then unseated the rider and was walked off after being apprehended. PROUD ALUMNUS settled towards the rear, rounded the turn in the two path, came four wide into the stretch, ducked in very sharply near the three-sixteenths and unseated the rider then was walked off after being apprehended.
