Chart notes

TWENTYONE N CHANGE came away well then contested the early pace from between horses, steadied into the turn and dropped out of the duel, came back on through the turn, bid for the lead at the top of the stretch, raced briefly on the left lead then finished well under strong handling and prevailed. JACKMAN'S RIDE was sent hard form the outside and was three to four wide in the early pace scramble, dueled through the turn with STAYED ON FOR HALF, battled gamely to the wire under strong handling but came up short. PRAYFORPEACE settled well off the pace while keeping to the inside, started to advance on the turn and carried the rally into the stretch, tipped out three wide into the clear very late and surged but was a little too late. STAYED IN FOR HALF broke well and vied inside in the early pace battle, held position through the turn with a rival still pressing the issue to the outside, battled gamely to the line but was outfinished. TODDCHERO chased inside mid-pack, kept on well late but was not quite good enough to threaten. RANCH BADGE settled off the pace then traveled around the turn in the three path, finished evenly but could not threaten. AVAILABLE STAR saved ground while unable to keep up with the early pace, was last going into the turn then rallied in the stretch and picked off a few rivals to improve. SIR STERLING was outrun from the break and was under a ride to keep up early and lacked a rally. SATURDAY'S GOLD was hustled away to contest the early pace then backed out and raced close up at the head of the tracking group down the backstretch racing three to four wide, tried to launch a bid under a drive from the three furlong marker, came four wide into the stretch but was unable to keep up in the late stages. PERLIANO was last away and lagged well behind through the early stages and was unable to improve.
