Chart notes

M L BRODY'S GEM pressed three across around the first turn, vied two across to the second turn, assumed command, inched clear and extended the margin late under mild urging. NO SOY BORRACHO came in at the start, settled off the pace, rallied three across on the second turn, bid willingly, couldn't gain on the winner and held for place. AOIDE was never far back, raced inside, bid between horses entering the turn, angled out at the top of the stretch to get around a tiring rival, angled back in, closed well, couldn't gain on the winner and held for place. GEM OF A STORM was unhurried early, advanced to the second turn, was within range and lacked the needed late response. SANTIAGO PROVINCE vied to the second turn, dropped back into the stretch and gave way. CUSTOM FOR J J vied inside around the first turn, fell back to stalk the pace, stopped after a half and was eased. This race had a timing discrepancy or malfunction and was re-timed using video technology to arrive at the most accurate time.
