Chart notes

WAR COMMANDER stalked the pace three wide, took over midway around the turn, drew off readily and widened through the lane while ridden out. EASIER SAID bumped at the start, had early speed inside, could not keep pace early on the turn, angled three wide near the seven-sixteenths marker, churned on through the lane and gained the place late. RUIZ JUNIOR set the pace two wide, could not match strides with the winner around the turn and lost second late. GOD IS LIFE was reluctant to load, was bumped soon after the start, raced two wide and never threatened. BLAZING HOT chased the pace inside and came up empty in the lane. KHARIF was outrun inside. JOE JR bumped soon after the start, raced three wide and had no response. AMOR GITANO played no factor while racing two wide. A MILLION STORIES bumped at the start and had very brief speed.
