Chart notes

SIR ARGENTO was forwardly placed while racing six-wide on the turn, moved up to take a slight lead at the eighth pole then was fully extended to hold off ATMOSPHERIC RIVER late. ATMOSPHERIC RIVER was unhurried early, rallied seven-wide into the stretch and finished fast. HEZ ALL SMILES vied for the lead from along the inside, drifted out slightly entering the stretch and held on gamely during the drive. WHISKEYTHENWINE saved ground while being reserved off the pace, slipped through during the drive and finished in a mild rally. FANCY DANCER was allowed to settle, came two-wide into the stretch and rallied late. TIZ DYNAMIC disputed the pace while racing two-wide, came three-wide into the stretch and lacked a rally. RAVEN RENDEZVOUS was prominently placed on the turn while four-wide and weakened late. TAME THE TIGER prompted the early pace while five-wide and tired. POCO YO was forwardly placed for a half mile racing three-wide and gave way.
