Chart notes

PRIVATE GEM stalked between then had to pause when put in a bit tight past the half-mile pole, ridden along while outside a rival then ran into traffic from the five-sixteenths pole to the top of the stretch, angled in then back out midstretch, then rallied three deep to be up in time. HALO UNCLE stalked from inside, ran into traffic midway around the turn, rallied up the rail and took over past the sixteenth pole but was outclosed by the winner. FACT OR FICTION sped to the front, showed the way two wide into the turn, moved over to the rail around the bend, put to left handed urging in upper stretch, challenged past the eighth pole, clung to a short lead at the sixteenth marker and passed on both sides. MR BIG BUCKS raced up close under coaxing early, had to pause behind FACT OR FICTION at the five-sixteenths pole, driven two wide into the lane and finished evenly late. LAST CALL PAUL chased five deep early, moved into the three path for the turn, moved in a bit then spun three wide into the lane and weakened. GRAZEN BOY chased off the pace up the backstretch, rounded the bend three wide and failed to menace. THIRSTY LOV got brushed from outside at the start, forwardly placed six deep early, rounded the bend four wide and weakened. MISCHIEVOUS DYLAN broke in and bumped at the start, climbed a bit and dropped back, trailed three to four wide on the turn and was not a factor.
