Chart notes

FITZY lacked early speed, moved up on the outside around the turn, made a wide rally, drove clear and finished strong. GOLD PLUS dueled on the front end, forwardly placed throughout, drove clear at the head of the home stretch, but proved no match late for the winner. TALKABOUT raced near the back in the early going, entered the home stretch wide, showed late interest, but was no match for the top two. GOOD BY FAITH raced near the back in the beginning, saved ground around the turn, angled out, passed tired ones, while finishing wide. R T'S CAJUN LADY dueled for the early lead, saved ground and faded. JILLY'S WEST challenged for the early advantage and dropped back.
