Chart notes

DOWNTOWN CHANNEL tracked the leader along the inside, came under coaxing near the quarter pole and spun two to three wide into upper stretch, dug in under a drive rallying to issue a challenge inside the final eighth and seized command seventy yards from the finish and prevailed at the end. LIFE ADVICE coaxed from the gate, showed the way in hand along the inside, shook away through the far turn and took the inside route into upper stretch, got roused straightened away, had the rider pause when coming out of the left side iron with three-sixteenths to go, reached down to get back into it and was asked once more for run at the eighth pole, dug in under threat, got collared with seventy yards to the finish and was along for the place honors. COMPETITIVE THREAT (IRE) coaxed from the start, chased along the inside coming under coaxing near the quarter pole, swung three to four wide into upper stretch, offered up a mild kick. LESLIE'S STAR tracked the pace just off the inside from mid pack coming under encouragement near the quarter pole, angled out five wide into upper stretch, offered up a mild bid. AVISO coaxed from the start, chased along the inside, moved through a tight seam inside of LESLIE'S STAR when asked for run at the five-sixteenths, took the inside route into upper stretch and kicked on belatedly to the wire. SHESINAMOOD raced just off the inside through the first turn, chased three wide coming under a ride at the five-sixteenths, angled five to six wide into upper stretch and tired. WIDDERSHINS coaxed from the gate, chased just off the inside and then along the inside coming under urging with five-sixteenths to run, angled four wide into upper stretch and made no impact. LADY RIVER LILY tossed her head rank at the start when the rider was against the bit at the break, then continued rank under restraint through to midway on the first turn, chased along the inside until tipped to the three path near the half mile pole, continued three wide through the far turn coming under encouragement at the five-sixteenths, spun just off the inside into upper stretch and tired. SAUCY SIX chased two to three wide under a ride from the five-sixteenths, angled five wide at the head of the stretch, faltered.
