Chart notes

GRACE AND GRIT forwardly placed three then two wide through the first turn, settled briefly just off the inside in aim of the leader before advancing to take over when sensing the dawdling early pace with five and a half furlongs to run, slipped away and tucked inside through the far turn patiently handled until set down spinning just off the inside into upper stretch, edged away under a drive to the eighth pole, dug in and held well to the finish. SARATOGA SNOW coaxed from the gate, showed the early on just off the inside and then along the inside through the first turn, had the aforementioned foe advance and was displaced from command with five and a half furlongs remaining and tracked that rival in closest aim along the inside, came under coaxing at the five-sixteenths, swung three wide into upper stretch and ran on to chase the winner home and secure the place honors. ONE MORE DANCE shied in at the start filling the space left vacant by INFASTUATION, went just off the inside through the first turn and then chased three then two wide coming under coaxing at the five-sixteenths, tipped three to four wide into upper stretch and offered up a mild kick. BRYANT AND COOPER got away to an awkward beginning conceding four lengths to the front before settling into stride, chased just off the inside and then along the inside coming under coaxing with five-sixteenths to go, swung three wide into upper stretch and offered up a mild bid. HEAVENLY LIGHT broke out at the start and was corrected, raced just off the inside and grew briefly rank under restraint into the first turn before going just off the inside, chased three then two wide advancing under coaxing at the five-sixteenths, swung four wide into upper stretch, then weakened in the late stages.

INFASTUATION broke in at the start brushing KISSED BY KARMA and conceded two lengths to the front, tracked just off the inside and then along the inside under coaxing from the five-sixteenths, cut the corner into upper stretch and weakened. KISSED BY KARMA broke awkward and then got brushed by the aforementioned foe breaking inwards, raced just off the inside through the first turn, chased four then two wide coming under coaxing near the five-sixteenths, cut the corner into upper stretch and tired. SPEED AND BEAUTY lost her rear footing at the start and conceded three lengths to the front, raced three wide through the first turn and then five paths off the inside down the backstretch, tucked three wide through the far turn under coaxing briefly from the three-eighths, spun two to three wide into upper stretch and was eased home to the finish.
