Chart notes

LITA WAY bumped at the start, settled inside, came off the rail into the second turn, was three wide on the second turn, came four wide into the lane, rallied outside and collared rival in deep stretch. BENSTER stalked from the inside, waited room from along the rail on the second turn, tipped out in upper stretch, surged between rivals, gained short lead but could not stave off winner late. DANZIG TIL DAWN bumped with inside rival leaving the gate, stalked while two then three wide at the far turn, loomed late on the turn then challenged threre abreast, gained slim lead but was out finished. G'ORO dueled early then gained control on the first turn, set pace from along the rail, resisted inside into the stretch but weakened in the final; sixteenth. COPPERHEAD FEVER three duel into the first turn, moved up and was closest pursuer on the backstretch, bid between foes approaching the stretch, but weakened in the drive. CHEERING FOR LAYLA chased early from the two path then along the rail, remained inside into the stretch, tipped out in the lane but was no threat. WINTER SNOW broke out bit, crossed over and chased from the inside,, dropped back around the final bend, bled and was eased in the stretch then was transported off the track via equine ambulance.
