Chart notes

AREYOUGONNAKISSME pressured the pace and dueled to even terms two deep midway on the turn, then dug in under steady handling to take the nod in the final strides. HARDLY EVER BETTER was hustled to the front and set a pressured pace, dug in to the challenge of the winner midway on the turn and kept the edge to late stretch, but gave up the lead in the final strides. POWERED BY LOVE chased inside, raced at the rail on the turn and dueled to clear third late yards. BERTRAM FLIGHT gave chase, raced in the three path on the turn and ran evenly in the lane. DONNIE B chased through the backstretch, rounded the turn in the three and four paths and showed little in the lane. SARAH'S CANDY CAMP ducked outward hitting the stall gate and scraped his rider off.
