Chart notes

STARSHIP NEBULA showed the way in the two path, held a firm advantage while under a nudge rounding the turn, was coaxed turning into the lane, and kicked away. EXPLOSIVE EXCHANGE prompted the pace in the four path, bid in the three path midway around the turn, received a right handed cue passing the quarter, could not keep up with the winner entering the stretch, but chased on to hold place. IT'S NORA NOW tracked in the three path, floated out to the five path and was roused midway around the turn, fanned out to the seven path entering the lane, drifted in and out thru the final furlong, and got up for show. CAJUN FANTASY chased inside, was coaxed in the two path midway around the turn, angled out to the five path at the top of the stretch, but evened out. LOVE PARADOX pressed in the three path, lost ground and tipped inside early around the turn, and flattened in the stretch. ACQUIRED TASTE raced off the pace in the three path but was no menace.
