Chart notes
TX CODE tracked the dueling leaders three wide to the stretch, bid three wide at the three-sixteenths, finished well under steady handling and edged clear in the final years. FORT HOOD pressed the early pace two deep to the stretch, was between horses in the three-way battle down the lane then went on through the final yards with TX CODE but gave way late. TURN NORTH was slow in to stride, went three wide through the turn and finished with a steady rally to gain third. TEXAS HOLDEM raced well off the pace through the early stages then finished with some mild interest in the stretch but could not get to the top pair. TIGERS 'N BEARS was last away and fell behind early, saved ground through the turn and was kept to task, improved position with some belated interest while not posing a serious threat. MY LITTLE PRINCE had good speed from the start and made the lead without being pushed early, led through the turn while taking a little pressure to the outside by FORT HOOD, turned for home with something in reserve, battled gamely to mid-stretch then weakened in the late stages. ESSAY settled mid-pack, saved ground, made a mild bid into the stretch but was unable to improve.
