Chart notes

MAKAYLA stalked in the fourth flight outside of trouble with a half mile to run, advanced between runners entering the far bend, closed the gap through the turn, was patiently handled weaving through horses at the quarter pole, briefly waited behind rivals at the top of the stretch, angled to the rail for running room at the eighth pole and burst up the fence late to nab the leader in the shadow of the wire. FOREVER DANISH rated kindly on the inside tracking the frontrunner down the back straight, was nestled on the rail waiting for the que to go at the three eighths marker, slipped through on the fence in upper stretch to lead at the furlong pole, did not switch leads to the finish and was caught by the winner nearing the wire in a solid performance. HIGH TREASON had a tardy start to trail in the early stages, caught up to the field by the half, started to rally three wide around runners at the quarter pole, swung out with momentum in the six path outside horses turning for home and closed strongly to the wire putting in a good late run to capture third. SMOKEN CHLOE tracked the leader outside in the third flight down the backstretch, roused in the two path outside of a rival midway on the far turn to take closer order four wide driving to the wire and was kept to the task through the stretch to offer a mild finish holding for a small piece of the prize. BAREFOOT SERVANTU travelled near the rear outside foes on the first turn, progressed along the backside outside runners, rallied three wide three eighths remaining, posed a threat in the five path in upper stretch and stalled with a furlong to run. TAKE CHANCES stalked in the two path close to the back in the early stages, was asked to quicken between rivals three furlongs from the wire, shifted four wide at the top of the lane and showed good late energy between horses from the sixteenth pole to the finish line. LOOK AT LIL SISTER tracked the pacesetter on the outside down the backstretch, began to inch closer to the leader at the quarter pole, had a brief lead in the three path straightening out for the drive, could not find more down the lane and tired with a sixteenth left to run. SPIRIT O'TIPPERARY stalked near the rear at the beginning, improved on the rail through the first turn, was nudged to go inside three eighths from home, could not gain on runners through the final turn and was not a factor driving to the finish. SMILES FOR DAVID settled on the inside in the third flight, was ridden for more making little headway on the fence three furlongs from the prize and yielded on the rail in mid-stretch. SEATTLE SIGNAL was hustled to the lead taking this field into the first turn, travelled up front unchallenged along the backside, under a drive was headed outside while clinging to the lead at the quarter pole, engulfed by runners on each side turning for home and faltered in the final furlong.
