Chart notes

TOO HOT TO STOP showed early foot in the two path inside rivals into the first turn then took a stalking position between rivals, traveled three deep up the backstretch, bid three deep on the far turn, took over at the quarter pole, drifted into the stretch and held safely. CLASSIC BALLAD vied in the three path into the first turn then stalked three deep around the bend, was closest in pursuit early on the backstretch, challenged from outside at the half-mile pole, took over midway around the far turn but relinquished the lead to the winner at the quarter pole, stayed in range into the final furlong and came back on to whittle the gap late. SHAMU tracked along the inside, suffered a mild shuffle early on the backstretch, drew closer along the fence, angled out on the second bend, spun five wide into the lane, lacked a bid but was able to hold the show. WONDERFULVENEZUELA got put in a bit tight between rivals into the first turn, angled down to the inside while dropping off the pace, started to gain on the far turn but had to pause behind a rival, gained an opening and continued on from the fence, stayed on the inside through the lane and produced a mild rally to round out the superfecta. UPSTREET vied in the six path into the first turn then angled down to the two path dueling outside a rival, cleared early on the backstretch, took pressure at the half-mile pole, lost command midway around the far turn, started to weaken leaving that bend and flattened in the drive. MYA C tracked two wide around the first turn and had to pause behind a rival late on the bend, continued a bit off the rail through the second turn and weakened. ALMA PURA tracked in the four path early, raced outside a rival on the backstretch while out of range, chased three deep turning for home and had little left for the stretch run. FUTURE FORTUNE vied five wide into the first turn then angled over to the rail, took a stalking position early on the backstretch then followed between rivals, lost ground while angling out on the far turn, came five wide into the stretch and faded. TOURIST STYLE trailed in the three path on the clubhouse turn, went two wide around the second bend, angled out approaching the stretch and was never a factor.
