Chart notes

FOREST B stalked the early leaders from the outside, was roused on the turn and from the six path at the top of the stretch fought gamely for the win. J M R GEMMA was in touch and raced evenly on the turn but from the four path at the top of the stretch was outgunned. CANT BEAT THE KATZ was hustled early, a factor on the turn and from the three path at the top of the stretch held show. GREEN GABLES set a pressured pace and had the lead on the turn but from the four path at the top of the stretch had nothing left. BLAZING SKY was in range and hustled along on the turn but from the seven path at the top of the stretch leveled off. JARA was off the pace and saved ground on the turn but had no rally. SPARKLE SAMMY was unhurried early and had a mild gain on the turn but from the five path at the top of the stretch was not a factor.
