Chart notes

MO TOURIST was quite content sitting all alone watching the pacesetter through very quick fractions at the half, began to reel in the speedster at the half, quickly went by to seize control at the quarter pole, had a commanding lead by mid-stretch and was much the best at the finish line. GROOM LAKE was eager behind runners fighting the rider on the first turn, started to gain on rivals extended his stride three furlongs from the finish on the rail, shifted just outside picking up runners through the last turn and closed belatedly to nail the frontrunner at the wire for second place. STRONGER TOGETHER set a torrid pace in the first half, had a commanding but quickly diminishing lead entering the final turn, offered no resistance to the winner who blew by at the quarter pole, was getting leg weary in upper stretch and faded at the wire to lose second money in a photo. ROBITAILLE stalked near the back between runners in the early stages, began to pick up runners making a running while weaved through horses at the quarter pole and finished up with intent down the stretch on the rail for a small share completing the superfecta. COACH ABERNATHY settled in mid-pack between horses down the backstretch, was urged at the quarter pole keeping pace with rivals, had a chance for a little piece of the prize in the two path straightening out for the drive but was one paced in the final eighth. GOOD SOLDIER was forwardly placed in a very strung out field at the half mile marker, chased but to no avail the front two around the final bend, had a chance for piece of the prize inside at the top of the stretch, could not find more late and stalled with a sixteenth to run. GUNGI stalked three wide in the first turn outside runners, travelled near the middle of the field three deep down the back straight, could not advance running around the final bend, resurged in mid-stretch but could not be a factor in the stretch drive. DAWSON SILVER was under a snug hold on the fence in midfield, offered a brief rally three wide midway on the final turn, was in range for a small share running in the five path turning for home but faltered in the final furlong. MISTER MESEEKS was unhurried on the rail to co-trail inside down the backstretch, caught up to runners with three furlongs to go, offered a brief run three to five wide outside foes on the far turn and could not be a presence in the stretch running. PERFECT PLAY co-trailed on the outside in the first turn, made no pression down the backside, could see the field running through the far turn and passed some tired rivals driving to the finish on the fence. SOCIAL JUSTICE stalked close to the back outside three wide on the first turn, made a move four wide circling around foes three furlongs out until the quarter pole, could not sustain the run and weakened behind runners at the top of the stretch. GLENHOLME was part of the tracking trio watching the loose speedster down the back straight, came under a ride to go after the front pair on the final turn, could not make up any ground at the quarter pole and stopped in mid-stretch. BLONDE DYNAMO was nestled on the rail in third on the first turn, was hard ridden on the fence three furlongs out going in the wrong direction and emptied out having nothing to give in upper stretch.
