Chart notes

WAR STRIDE coaxed from the gate, raced three wide in closest aim of the leader before tucking to the two path and advancing on that rival to duel through the turn, came under coaxing just outside the quarter pole and spun just off the inside into upper stretch, dug in head to head to the sixteenth marker before inching away in the late stages to the wire. NEUSCHWANSTEIN coaxed from the start, showed the way early on from the two path, tucked inside and came under pressure and dueled through the turn with the aforementioned foe to his outside, got placed to coaxing with five-sixteenths to go, took the inside route into upper stretch, dug in running on through to the finish clear for the place honors. MIDNIGHT WORKER coaxed from the gate, chased three then two wide under urging from the five-sixteenths, angled three to four wide into upper stretch, kept on through to the finish. GOOD REUNION urged from the start, chased briefly just off the inside before tipping out to the four path down the backstretch, tucked three wide through the turn and was ridden along at the five-sixteenths, swung five wide into upper stretch, offered up a mild bid. GIANT'S FIRE five then four wide in pursuit, got pushed along with three furlongs remaining, angled out six wide at the top of the stretch and tired. MY COOL HAND LUKE got away last and was hustled, raced sluggish quickly growing detached at the tail of the field while seven paths off the rail down the backstretch, tucked four then three wide through the turn, went five wide into upper stretch and trailed throughout.
