Chart notes

NATURAL STAR was bumped at the start, vied between foes down the backstretch, dropped back under some urging while racing in three path around the turn, angled five wide near the quarter pole, closed outside and was up late. JIGSAW disputed the pace inside of foes in the two path, won the duel leaving the eighth pole and was nailed late. ALWAYS A WAY had his head turned at the start, trailed in the five path and closed with a rush to just miss second. RYE'S MY GUY pressed the pace three wide, took the lead near the five-sixteenths pole, continued on the left lead in the lane and weakened. SEVERANCE chased the pace inside and lacked the needed rally. WHATEVERWILBEWILBE vied between foes down the backstretch and faded nearing the quarter pole.
