Chart notes

OUTLAW KID dropped back then settled towards the rear, moved from the rail to the two path on the turn, swung seven wide into the stretch then rallied on the outside, closed fast to make a bid inside the furlong marker, took the advantage just inside the sixteenth-pole, battled with the runner-up to the finish and narrowly prevailed under strong urging. BIG INVASION angled in early, was well spotted just off the pace, drafted in the two path on the turn, was roused four wide into the stretch, gained to make a bid inside the three-sixteenths pole, took the advantage inside the furlong marker, led into the final sixteenth then was headed by the winner, fought on with that foe to the finish and just missed while able to get the place. SON OF A BIRCH settled off the pace, dropped back late on the backstretch, moved from the rail to the two path on the turn, was roused three wide into the stretch, pursued the runner-up in the drive and finished with good courage to garner the show. BOURBON MUSIC settled off the pace, went three wide on the turn, swung six wide into the stretch and improved position for the last spot in the superfecta. BOAT'S A ROCKIN broke alertly and went straight to the front, moved in while showing the way, vied in the two path on the turn, came under the crop under threat in upper stretch, lost the advantage inside the furlong marker and weakened. THIN WHITE DUKE was urged along at the rear, moved from three to five wide on the turn, came nine wide into the stretch and failed to threaten. HIGH FRONT was taken in hand early, stalked the pace on the outside of the leader, vied in the three path while let out on the turn, battled under a drive in upper stretch, dropped back into the final furlong and tired. CLOUDY was ridden along towards the rear, went three then four wide on the turn, came eight wide into the stretch and lacked the needed response. HEAVEN STREET was well placed just off the pace, dropped back along the rail on the turn and came up empty. YES AND YES hit the outside of the gate at the start, moved up on the outside to track the pace, was urged four wide on the turn and capitulated.
