Chart notes

GRAINGER COUNTY was unhurried early, raced evenly on the turn and with the lead from the four path at the top of the stretch fought gamely for the win. CORE showed speed from the inside, had the lead on the turn and vied through the stretch but was second best. MISTER BANJOMAN was up close and a factor on the turn but from the three path at the top of the stretch needed more. FREE SQUARE was off slow, roused on the turn and from the five path at the top of the stretch finished evenly. MOBILIZER was hustled early and forced the pace on the turn but from the four path at the top of the stretch leveled off. MAXIMUS MOMENTUS broke poorly and showed little while while outrun. HIGHLAND SOCIETY was off the pace and saved ground on the turn but was not a factor.
