Chart notes

ABADIN coaxed from the gate, showed the way in hand just off the inside knocking heads briefly with MIDNIGHT WORKER before shaking off that rival tucking nearer to the inside, took the inside route through the turn and spun just off the inside into upper stretch set down for the drive, edged clear to the eighth pole, held well and clear to the finish. PATRIARCHAL coaxed from the start, chased four paths off the inside down the backstretch before tucking to the two path into the turn, floated briefly three wide at the three-eighths, went three wide into upper stretch, offered up a mild bid to be along clear of the rest and second best. BADLANDS RULER three wide in pursuit, briefly tucked to head to the two path nine-sixteenths from home as PATRIARCHAL began to tuck in from the outside and bumped and jostled with MIDNIGHT WORKER who already had that path established, separated near the half mile pole and continued three wide through the turn pausing briefly when PATRIARCHAL floated out safely in front at the three-eighths, tipped four wide into upper stretch and weakened. MIDNIGHT WORKER coaxed from the gate, dueled inside of ABADIN early on before being shaken off by that rival and tipped out to the two path, had BADLANDS RULER come inwards at the nine-sixteenths as PATRIARCHAL tucked inwards from the outside in front and was bumped and jostled for the two path with BADLANDS RULER before parting ways just outside the half mile pole, chased just off the inside through the turn coaxed along from the three-eighths, cornered two to three wide into upper stretch and tired. STEADY PROGRESS coaxed from the start, chased just off the inside down the backstretch before heading four wide through the turn coming under encouragement with five-sixteenths remaining, angled six wide at the head of the lane, tired in the stretch.
