Chart notes

LONGSHOREMAN built a clear advantage with a half mile to go, led well traveling well in hand with his ears pricked around the turn, kicked away when set down in upper stretch and was ridden out under mild urging. STRONG tracked two wide, shifted out to the four to five path in upper stretch, ran on to bid for place at the furlong grounds, sparred with an inner rival for that position thereafter and edged past. THEBABESLAYER stalked closest to the clear leader from the two path, proved no match before meeting an outer challenge for place in midstretch, dug in and dueled gamely, but was bested. SIGNATORY MAN (IRE) was bumped by an outer foe leaving the gate, steadied when put to cramped quarters between horses early on, recovered off of the pace, got floated out to the four path by a rank rival into the turn, tucked down to the three path before swinging out to the six path entering the lane, then rallied willingly while flopping back to his left lead in the final furlong. DA PRINCE IS RIGHT bumped an inner rival at the start, laid well back tucking to the inside into the turn, shifted out and advanced in the six path and between horses in midstretch and moved up. ZEUS'S ECHO leaned outwardly at the start, pursued from midpack in the three to four path and failed to menace. HAPPY PRINCE tracked along the inside, chased in upper stretch and yielded. SPEAKING IN CURSIV dropped back along the the inside, got rank from rider's restraint when corrected from lugging outwardly into the turn, raced well back in the two path and made little impact. BAYTOWN ANUBIS pursued from midpack two wide and between horses, sustained pursuit from the two path around the turn and faded. DR. MY EYES steadied slightly soon after the start, raced at the rear in the three path around the turn, shifted wider into upper stretch and got outrun.
