Chart notes

CHOPSTICKS chased in the five path, was ridden in the three path around the turn, angled back out to the five path in upper stretch, rallied past an inner pair to lead going by the sixteenth, and drew clear. SINA bumped with an inner foe at the start, pressed in the three path, bid in the two path around the turn, took commmand passing the eighth pole, got overtaken by an outer foe around the sixteenth, but held place. GO TO GIRL rated inside, was roused in the three path midway around the turn, bumped with an inner foe while fanning out ot the seven path at the top of the lane, but improved late. MURIEL SAX bumped with an outer foe at the start, tracked in the two path, was in tight along the rail midway around the turn, drifted out to the six path in upper stretch, then flattened. VAJRA set the pace in the two path, was cued from the rail midway around the turn, fought on in upper stretch, but yielded in the final furlong. TEATONIC stalked in the four path, was driven in the two path around the turn, bumped with an outer foe while floating out to the six path in upper stretch, then weakened. SEA ZEST was wellback in the three path and never threatened. EL BARRIO had a slow start and always trailed around the two to three paths.
