Chart notes

IMA BLING CAT stalked from outside, went five to six wide on the turn moving nearer the lead, floated seven wide into upper stretch, took charge at that point and drove clear. CYCLONE MESA was urged at the start moving through inside to the lead to set the pace from off the rail, drifted five wide leaving the turn, was no match for the winner but kept on well enough to secure the place. CHARLIE'S GHOST stalked three wide into the turn and in between runners, floated six wide into upper stretch by the drifting leader, needed more. MASK OFF broke well but settled into stride dropping back off the leaders on the turn, was forced six to seven wide outside foes on the bend, floated eight wide into upper stretch, ran on. BLUEGRASS FAITH broke in the air, settled outside at the rear, moved forward on the turn five to six wide, angled nine deep at the top of the stretch and ran on. DUBRONSKY shifted in, saved ground near but off the rail through the turn but was not a threat. STYLE BENDER was up close stalking into the turn, went four wide on that bend, faltered and faded. SMOOTH BLUES lacked early speed, shifted in a bit for the turn racing in the two to three path, was not a threat. BULLAWAY broke in the air, chased from inside, raced off the rail dropping back on the turn, came out further in the stretch, was not a factor.
