Chart notes

DESTINED TO DANCE unhurried early, rallied three wide on the turn, took over into the stretch and extended her advantage under moderate pressure. ALLIE'S HALO raced close up near the inside, angled out on the turn, rallied mildly but was no match for the winner. STRIKING MELODY broke alertly and set a clear pace, was collared midway on the turn and faded. APRIL'S GOLD raced in closest pursuit of the pacesetter, led at the five sixteenths pole then faded through the stretch. AKIVA dropped well behind in the opening quarter and was never a factor. SEA IMAGE chased along the rail on the backstretch, was taken up sharply into the far turn and had no further response.
