Chart notes

SAFFA'S DAY tracked in the four to five path, sustained grinding progress to bid outside of the leaders at the sixteenth pole, edged past and lasted late. LOFTY ADJUDICATOR laid off of the pace in the four to six path, shifted inwardly in upper stretch, then rallied between horses with a late kick, bid inside of the new leader nearing the wire but missed. SWOT ANALYSIS vied two wide and between horses early on, stalked rivals from the two to three path around the turn, bid three deep in upper stretch, vied through midstretch before being bested by an outer bidder leaving the sixteenth pole, and lost place late. MIDNIGHT ESCAPE laid off of the pace in the three path and between horses, shifted out to the six path in upper stretch and stayed on willingly late. CHAMPLIN vied three wide and between horses, prompted his outer counterpart while tucking to the inside into the turn, rebid inside of that one entering the lane, dueled through midstretch but yielded with a sixteenth to go. INSOLITO prompted four deep early on, gained an advantage moving to the three path into the turn, vied between bidders in upper stretch but weakened hanging on his left lead leaving the furlong grounds. LUDWIG was hustled forward along the inside, prompted before checking back leaving the nine sixteenths pole, chased from the two path around the turn then gave way between horses. READY TO POUNCE trailed in the two to four path and failed to menace. HIGHER STANDARD bumped an inner rival at the start, lacked speed in the three path, shifted inwardly entering upper stretch and failed to factor. POWERFUL laid off of the pace in the two path, checked when an outer rival shifted across his path entering upper stretch and made little impact. BAYTOWN BEAR took simultaneous contact from rivals on both sides at the start, lacked speed along the inside and got outrun.
