Chart notes

HARD KINGS reserved at the back of the field early, started to creep forward after passing the five-furlong pole, was not making much progress at the head of the far turn the found another gear under steady urging at the three-furlong pole, rallied along the rail into the stretch then tipped out to the three path, inhaled the leaders and was up in plenty of time. PRINCE LIAM was always prominent through the early stages, was set down when SUPER TACO opened up on the far turn, but initially did not respond, was kept in a drive through the stretch and also under intermittent urging, and produced a grinding finish to claim the place. SWEET CANDY BOY got caught wide on the first turn then settled near the rear for the first half mile, went three to four wide through the far turn then five wide into the stretch and ran on some to the end, was rapidly gaining on the leaders but ran out of time. SUPER TACO came away well and was pushed to get forward position, gained the lead on the turn then set the pace down the backstretch with a trio in close pursuit, tried to quicken away approaching the half-mile pole and widened through the far turn, started to shorten strides approaching the furlong pole while racing on the wrong lead and was overtaken in the final yards. LA BOUCANE settled three wide with the tracking group up front, chased SUPER TACO into the stretch late on the far turn, loomed then flattened out and could not find the winning kick when needed. B D ENVISIONIST saved ground while reserved near the back, then was kept to task late but was never a threat. STANLEY LITTLE BOY tracked in the front half of the field to the far turn, then had little to offer the the stretch. WHATDIDWEDO broke inward at the start, tracked mid-pack in the early stages then had little left for the stretch run. WAY TOO TOUGH raced three wide throughout, got as close as mid-pack late on the backstretch then steadily retreated. Copyright 2026 Equibase Company LLC. All Rights Reserved.
