Chart notes
POP'S PEPPYSTEPER was not asked for speed from the break and settled at the back early, advanced steadily on the turn, going two to three wide, bid for the lead at the quarter pole and dueled with AVERY'S GEM through the stretch, got a head in front at the furlong pole and edged clear in the final yards. AVERY'S GEM was off a beat slow, was rushed up to join the early pace battle, then pressed through the turn, bid between horses at the top of the stretch, dueled with POP'S PEPPYSTEPER through the stretch, gave way grudingly in the final furlong and was second best. COUNTRY GUY broke well, vied early then backed off the developing pace duel, dropped to the back going into the turn then went into a drive with three furnongs to run, kept to task down the lane and just got up for third while well behind the top pair. GABE'S POSSUM was contesting the pace three wide then got carried out nine or ten wide by ALVARADO CAT, took over the lead at the seven-sixteenths pole, gave way at the top of the stretch and finished evenly. ALVARADO CAT broke well then bore out into the eight or nine-path before going a furlong, remained at least six wide for the rest of the trip and was not persevered with, finished the race with the rider doing his best to steer a straight course while still trying to get out in the stretch. HONOR THAT DUDE was a bit slow into stride and settled at the back of the compact field, came under a ride from the seven-sixteenths marker but struggled to keep pace through the turn, was kept to task but had little to offer in the stretch. CORPORAL PAUL was contesting the early pace then got carried out very wide by ALVARADO CAT, altered course to avoid that rival and dueled briefly between horses, weakened before the three furlong pole and was not a factor in the late stages.
