Chart notes

BUTTONWOOD TREE broke sharply and raced to the lead from along the rail in the run to the first turn, dictated the pace through the second turn and in the run down the backside, increased his advantage through the final turn, and was never seriously threatened. SOMTHING ELUSIVE away well and settled off the contested early pace while saving ground at the rail entering the stretch the first time, saved ground through the second turn while racing into a stalking trip, rallied along the inside entering the final turn, and closed five wide in the drive to prove easily second best. GOOD BYE PUTIN was taken in hand and allowed to settle well off the early pace while racing two wide through the first turn, gained ground through the second turn to take a stalking trip into the backstretch, rallied three wide entering the final turn, but lacked the needed closing response when called upon. DYNAMITER away alertly and tracked the pacesetter two wide entering the first turn, continued from a tracking trip through the second turn and in the run down the backstretch, commenced his bid two wide entering the final turn, but faded in the late stages.
