Chart notes

I'M A COWBOY was allowed to settle early, then ranged up five wide on the turn, took over the lead turning into the stretch then finished uncontested to the wire under a drive. BANDERA BLING vied three wide early, came under a drive from the quarter pole and proved no match for the winner but finished willingly to gain second clear of the third horse. WINGS FOR ENO lagged far back early, saved ground through the turn then found best stride late and rallied into the third spot. MY FAVORITE SONG was inside of the five-way pace battle, dug in gamely in the stretch but weakened in the final sixteenth and was outfinished. RAGS ROYAL PRINZ showed good early speed and was sent to the front from the break, was two deep in the early pace scramble through the initial furlongs, battled on to upper stretch then tired. VALDINA DREAMS contested the early pace four wide through the early stages, came five wide into the stretch and was unable to make an impact.
