Chart notes

BIG GAIN was urged along on the outside, went around the turn in the five path, rallied outside into the final furlong, drifted out while gaining fast around the sixteenth-pole and got up to prevail. UNCAPTURED STAR was hustled to the front then set the pace under pressure to his outside, vied along the rail on the turn, shook clear under a right-handed crop while coming off the inside into upper stretch, was put to a left-handed crop while beginning to drift out coming to the eighth-pole, continued to drift out while put to a strong hand-ride for most of the final furlong, led into the final seventy yards but was caught while clear for the place. SIN NOMBRE brushed with a rival inside the three-quarter pole then dropped back, was urged along off the pace, moved out some late on the backstretch, dropped from the four path to the three path on the turn, came out to the six path into the stretch and finished willingly for the show. RIDE UP broke a bit awkwardly, established position just off the pace on the outside, chased in the four path on the turn, pursued the leader under a drive in the stretch and lacked the needed kick. BECAUSE THE NIGHT dropped back between horses after the start then angled in at the rear, saved ground on the turn, moved out in the vicinity of the furlong marker and improved position. IRON MAN IRA bobbled at the start but broke with the field then was hustled, angled in while showing speed then pressed the pace on the outside, vied in the three path on the turn, turned into upper stretch under a drive and tired. AINT NO JOKE bumped with rivals on both sides at the start, raced just off the pace between foes, chased in the two path on the turn, turned into upper stretch under a drive and weakened. MASTERWORK bumped with an opponent at the start, was well placed just off the pace, chased inside on the turn and came up empty. BOSS THREE O TWO bumped with a rival at the start then was hustled, brushed with a foe inside the three-quarter pole, dropped back outside the nine-sixteenths pole, moved out some late on the backstretch, went around the turn in the three path, spun into the stretch in the four path then moved further out and had nothing left.
