Chart notes

STONE COLD CAT unhurried early to be the trailer, circled six wide on the turn to engage the leaders midway down the lane, leaned in to brush the runner-up iniside the eighth pole and prevailed over that one in the drive. SWEET LEMON DROP stalked the pacesetter to midway on the turn, engaged the leader at the quarter pole, battled between rivals down the lane, came together with the winner inside the final furlong and dueled with that one until the final strides. WEEKEND BUZZ set a pressured pace to midway down the lane and weakened holding the show. VENTURE ON stalked the pace to the turn, was set to an early drive and lacked a finishing response. BABA LOOEY was one-paced never posing a threat. FIRSTHAND JUSTICE was held at the start causing him to rear, galloped out to the wire and was declared a non-starter and walked off. THE STEWARDS POSTED AN INQUIRY INTO THE START AND UPON REVIEW DECLARED FIRSTHAND JUSTICE A NON-STARTER.
