Chart notes

HARD LINE raced in the second flight between horses, rallied into the turn to challenge, assumed command and drew off through the drive while kept to task. GABBYS BLING broke out, saved ground, bid along the rail on the turn and closed steadily to earn place while no threat to the winner. GRAY DANE was crowded, bumped and checked hard at the start, raced far back early, swung wide entering the stretch, was crowded near the eighth pole and closed to earn show while no threat to the top two. FINAL HALF vied inside to the stretch, weakened and gave way. DADDY'S GIFT raced in the second flight, advanced into the turn to get within range, fell back and was crowded near the eighth pole. COATTAILS broke out, vied two across to the stretch, fell back and veered out near the eighth pole. KING'S LUTE raced mid pack in an even effort and lacked a bid. MO SOPO broke out and bumped at the start and was not a factor.
