Chart notes

VAHVA tracked the pace early on from the four to five path, raced in the three path along the turn, was in the four path entering the lane under a rally, made a bid nearing the eighth pole, was put under a long drive near the sixteenth pole and edged clear in the final stages while wrapped up. ALVA STARR stalked the pace from the four path, raced in the three path along the turn, was in the two path into the lane while taking over command, was put under a long drive but gave in near the sixteenth pole and held place in the final stages. FLYING CONNECTION chased the pace early from the four path, was in the three path into the lane, rallied down the lane and was gaining in the late stages. CHI TOWN LADY was a tad slow at the break and trailed the field early on, swung into the seven path entering the lane, rallied down the lane and was gaining in the final stages. STERLING SILVER raced back early on from the seven path, was in the six path into the lane under a rally, made a bid near the eighth pole but flattened out late in the drive. SPIRIT WIND set the pace early on, raced near the rail into the lane and faltered late in the stretch run. THREE WITCHES raced in the four path into the lane and moved up late in the stretch drive. RED CARPET READY chased the pace early, raced in the four path along the turn, was in the five path entering the lane and empty late. OLIVIA DARLING stalked the pace early on from the three path, raced near the rail through the turn and was tired down the lane. AMERICAN BAND raced along the rail in the turn, fanned into the five path entering the lane while done early on.
