Chart notes

SOMBRA DORADA broke outwardly, stalked three wide approaching the turn, bid two wide leaving the three furlong pole, gained an advantage in upper stretch and drew clear. BOLT ON THE ROCKS vied two wide, led into the turn before the eventual winner issued an outer challenge with three furlongs to go, got headed and proved no match for that one in upper stretch then lasted for place. ROSE ALABAMA broke outwardly, tracked four wide, floated out to the seven path into the lane, ran on to duel for show with an inner rival through the final furlong, prevailed for that position and ran out of ground for place. CREATIVE QUALITY brushed an outer rival at the start, vied along the inside, checked in tight rail quarters into the turn, recovered to chase the top pair from the three path turning for home, drifted out to the six path entering the lane, yet stayed on between rivals to vie for show with an outer foe through the final furlong, but missed that position. FUN TO RUN was brushed between rivals at the start, laid off of the pace near the inside, chased whlie improving mildly in upper stretch and flattened out. LOU ANNA brushed with an inner foe at the start, lagged behind in the three path and got outrun.
