Chart notes

STORMQUIST was away alertly to set the early pace, then was pressured by the half mile marker and dueled for command nearing the quarter pole, then shook clear by the furlong marker and kicked away to prove best under a drive. VALYRIAN SKY tracked the early pace in between rivals, moved out on the turn and made a four wide move on the turn, came five wide off the bend and needed more while gaining the place late. WARRIOR TED broke outwardly at the start, then moved up to prompt the pace on the outside, made a three wide bid on the turn to duel for command but faded in the final furlong, lost place late. MASK PATROL stalked the pace four wide and then three wide on the turn, came four wide off the bend and lacked the needed kick. MAT MATTERS chased the pace in between rivals, two to three path on the turn and weakened. JMR SPEEDY ESCAPE tracked the early pace from the inside and weakened. DOUBLE NICKEL was settled back early and five wide on the turn and never factored.
