Chart notes

SPIRITUAL MIRAGE went to the front, saved ground, shook off a late challenge by WILD APRIORITY and was kept to the task. WILD APRIORITY raced near the back in the early part, moved up on the outside around the turn, drifted out down the stretch, proved no match for the winner, but was best of others. THE LAST CAT pressed the pace, weakened and proved no match for the top two. I NITA WARRIOR broke out, vied for the early advantage and faded. SMOKEY G showed brief speed, dropped back and was outrun. BOOTLEGGER BAY lacked early speed and trailed throughout.
