Chart notes

O'BANION (IRE) stalked the solid early pace between runners, lost ground along the turn and chased two wide to the quarter marker, was steered four then five wide into the stretch and made a mild gain at the furlong marker, responded to urging into the final sixteenth, overtook HAVAKASH READY and edged away in deep stretch to prevail. HAVAKASH READY showed good early speed and set a fast pace into the turn, drew to a clear lead while carving out solid fractions heading to the quarter pole, was set down in upper stretch and showed the way to the furloing marker, held foes at bay to the sixteenth-pole, was overtaken by O'BANION in deep stretch and was outfinished for the win, while besting the rest. HE'S INIT TO WINIT tracked the solid pace from the inside, lost ground along the turn and chased to the quarter marker, maintained an inside path into the stretch and re-rallied at the furlong grounds, was outkicked in the final sixteenth and just held for third. SMOKIN' GOOD TIME raced a bit in tight early on, saved ground into the turn and improved position at the quarter marker, angled four wide into the stretch, was gaining in the final furlong and just missed for third. JAIME'S COMMITMENT chased the solid pace from a two wide position and offered a mild late rally. AS LUCK HAPPENS close up early, chased the loose pacesetter to the quarter marker, ran in pursuit to mid-stretch and gave way. GALLO DEL CIELO showed brief speed, lost position four wide on the turn, swung five wide for the drive and weakened. HOLY SMOKES lacked early speed, chased from the rail along the turn and did not factor. UNCLE DUSAN chased the fast early pace from mid-pack, was coaxed along three wide to the quarter marker, dropped back into the stretch and tired. Copyright 2026 Equibase Company LLC.
