Chart notes

NO TROUBLE vied for the early lead then settled in a stalking position covered up behind the pacesetting pair, had nowhere to go through the far turn then split horses at the furlong marker, gained the lead and held sway under a strong hand ride and steady urging. SINGING DIXIE took the worst of the start and got shuffled back to last at the start, advanced steadily down the backstretch and into the far turn then loomed six wide into the stretch, ran on well under strong handling and just missed in a driving finish. ZE'BUL got squeezed at the start then was held up at the rear of the field early, waited until the stretch before launching a bid, took the rail path in the stretch, squeezed through along the rail in deep stretch and close stoutly only to come up short in a good effort. BROOKLYN ALLEY CAT was unhurried early and settled behind the main forward pack, launched a three wide bid on the far turn, came five wide into the stretch, was finishing well under left handed urging then put in tight in the last sixteenth. SUMMER LOVER broke out at the start and caused a chain reaction to the three horses in adjacent stalls, then was guided to the front and secured the rail going into the first turn, stalked while stuck in side with no escape path down the backstretch, remained in the same position into the stretch then took advantage of the gap passing the chute, finished willingly but was outkicked to the wire. WHISKEY WITH YOU was always close up with the forward group, got a clean run into the stretch, ran on well but was outfinished in the late stages. IRISH KITTEN was always close up, traded the lead with BRILLIANT SPIN down the backstretch and into the far turn, kept on well when challenged on all sides at the top of the stretch but weakened late. BRILLIANT SPIN was away well then was three wide turning onto the main course but gained the lead under a hold before the first turn, ceded to IRISH KITTEN down the backstretch but pressed to the inside, put a head in front at the quarter pole then was overtaken from all sides in the stretch. SUPREME LEADER was least affected by the mess at the start, then coaxed to forward position down the chute then tracked three wide around the clubhouse turn, was close up into the far turn the came under heavy right handed pressure nearing the quarter pole and had little to give in the stretch.
