Chart notes

WHAT A DUDE was forwardly placed racing two-wide, angled to the inside leaving the quarter pole, took command approaching the eighth pole and quickly drew clear. LISTENTOTHEMUSIC saved ground setting the pace, drifted out slightly leaving the quarter pole, was no match for the winner but held on well for second. FIREWALKER prompted LISTENTOTHEMUSIC racing along the outside and finished well for third. VERITAS AEQUITAS was allowed to settle, moved up three-wide on the turn and then went evenly late. SURPRSINGLYPERFECT was reserved off the pace racing two-wide, swung out to come five-wide into the stretch but lacked a rally. ELEGANT BOY was close-up early racing along the inside, dropped back after a half mile, angled out to be six-wide entering but was unable to seriously threaten. PERFECT DUDE was forwardly placed early racing three-wide and tired.
