Chart notes

MARCUS GIFT stalked two wide, then between rivals turning for home as an outer pair ranged up alongside, ran on to bid outside of the leader in midstretch, flopped back to his left lead while forging an advantage in the final furlong and drove clear. DON CORLEONE sped clear down the backstretch, maintained a margin around the turn, but was collared by an outer rival at the furlong grounds, failed to keep pace with that one into the final sixteenth then held place. PROTON SPIRIT tracked three wide and between horses, crept closer among foes around the turn to be within striking range in upper stretch, but drifted about while failing to issue a bid with an inner counterpart, chased thereafter and needed more for place. SPIELMAN pursued from midpack in the two path, awaited racing room behind foes turning for home, then chased one paced while delaying changing leads until midstretch. TAKETHEFIFTH tracked four wide, advanced outside of rivals around the bend, but flattened out in upper stretch and yielded. MAX COLLECTOR broke slowly, brushed an inner rival at the half mile pole before settling off of the pace along the inside, shifted out to the five path in upper stretch and failed to factor. HEN HEN was brushed by an outer rival and forced to scrape inner rail paint passing the half mile pole, trailed in the two to three path, fanned out to the six path in upper stretch and made little impact. UNBRIDLED PLEASURE stalked along the inside, chased turning for home and faded.
