Chart notes

OPERATION SUNRISE led narrowly inside of a trio of rivals early on, then inside of only a single rival around the turn, drew off passing the quarter pole, widened under light hand urging into the final furlong, but lugged inwardly while shying from a right handed crop in the final sixteenth, had the rider take a quick hold to avoid brushing the inner rail yet still won as much the best. GOOD MOJO bumped with an outer rival leaving the gate, prompted two wide and between horse early on, then only outside of the eventual winner around the turn, proved no match for that one leaving the quarter pole and held place. POST GAME bumped with an inner rival at the start, pressed three wide and between horses, failed to sustain pressure and chased two wide and between rivals at the three furlong pole, exchanged bumps with those foes at the quarter pole, yet ran on to duel for show with his inner counterpart through the lane and narrowly prevailed between horses at the wire. KY DO DECLARE broke slowly, tracked while tucking to the inside into the turn, moved inside of rivals around the bend, exchanged bumps with an outer foe at the quarter pole, ran on to duel for show with that one through the final furlong but missed. NASH POTATOES laid off of the pace along the inside, shifted four wide into the lane and offered a mild kick to miss show. EMPIRE RANCH raced off of the pace in the four to three path and failed to factor. DISCERNING SPIRIT broke slowly and shied from an inner rival at the start, trailed along the inside, swung out five wide into the lane, floated wider into midstretch and failed to factor. MR ENTERTAINER leaned outwardly leaving the gate, stalked four to three wide, traded bumps with an inner foe at the quarter pole and weakened between horses.
