Chart notes

PAYNE trailed in the three path, swung out to the six path into upper stretch, rallied widest to reel in the leader in the final sixteenth and drew clear. TURN UP THE TREES got fractious and reared in the starting gate, was sent forward at the start, dictated terms via a clear advantage while well in hand around the turn, but came under a drive at the furlong grounds, got caught by an outer challenger in the final sixteenth and held place. REGAL REY laid off of the pace in the three path, rallied four deep turning for home, reached place in midstretch, but was outkicked by an outer rival in the final furlong then was denied reclaiming place late. ROCKET HOSS stalked in the three path, chased into the lane, hung on his left lead in upper stretch, lost place in midstretch and yielded. AMERICAN OUTLAW was restless in the starting gate, tracked from midpack along the inside into the turn, chased into the lane and tired. PROMISES TO DANCE stalked from the two path, chased between horses turning for home, but was put to crowded quarters at the quarter pole and faltered.
