Chart notes

MRS. HOT SHOT broke outwardly, was forwardly-positioned into the first turn outside foes just off the lead, moved to challenge near the five-eighths, pressed the new leader from inside before taking a narrow advantage at the seven-sixteenths, was put to urging at the top of the stretch, moved clear by mid-stretch, continued to drift out late and held while being kept busy to the wire. TEXENSIS was a bit fractious in the gate, bumped at the start, settled well back angling in to the rail, saved some ground in the early going, moved out on the far turn to be four or five wide nearing the quarter pole, was guided out further coming to the top of the stretch, took aim from between runners, was carried out further still near the furlong grounds, surged from between foes late to secure the place while gaining on the winner but needed more. CLASSIC GLORY settled early racing two to three wide at the back, moved out and advanced four to six wide on the far turn racing widest of all into upper stretch, was forced out further in mid-stretch, got show honors. INITTOWINIT was off the pace four wide through the first turn, advanced five deep on the far turn under some urging nearing the quarter pole, altered outside runners ten deep in mid-stretch, ran on but was outkicked by others for the minor placings. MOET MONET stalked outside the second flight five wide into the first turn, made a rapid early move to the lead past the five-eighths, vied outside a runner through the far turn, weakened in the stretch. SLOANS SKY was forwardly-placed racing close up in pursuit of the leaders three to four wide, ridden along near the five-sixteenths, failed to rally. IMPECCABLE TIMING had bumps on both sides at the start, shifted in settling mid-pack two to three wide, raced between foes into the far turn and kept on one-paced. SIX FOR A NINE bumped with rivals at the start and checked sharply dropping back to last, settled at the rear, swung nine wide for the drive, was not a threat. BLING D'MONEY HOME broke on top but was taken back off the leaders into the first turn pulling a bit against rider's restraint, tracked from inside saving ground, lacked room and waited briefly near the quarter pole, swung out three wide past that juncture with room but failed to threaten. SHE'SACROWDPLEASER bumped the outside foe at the start, moved forward briefly taking the lead into the first turn and bumping with the outside rival at that point, was soon overtaken and tracked from inside, tired. MRS. BENJAMIN bumped with a rival into the first turn racing close to the pace, continued to chase in behind two to three wide, tired.
