Chart notes

STATESMAN was rated along early, moved out and made a four wide move nearing the quarter pole to loom boldly, but idled leaving the turn, then surged late to get up in time to prove best under a drive. MAJORCA set the pace on the inside to the two path, was well handled and shook clear leaving the turn to be clear by the furlong marker but was caught to just miss. TIMELY DECISION tracked the pace while in between rivals, continued on the far while in the two path but lacked the needed winning bid while clearly besting the rest. SARKIS prompted the pace three wide and went up to press the pace by the five sixteenths but weakened in the drive. GRAFFITI WRITER tracked the pace on the inside and weakened in the drive. G SPEEDY was reserved on the inside and failed to menace. ORTHO STAR was bumped at the break, settled back early, three to four wide on the far turn and never factored. GAME DAY was off a step slow, reserved on the outside early, between rivals by the three eighths marker and tired.
