Chart notes

BEST ACTOR broke outward, stalked the pace in the four path, bid at the three-eighths pole, dueled through the stretch and prevailed under steady handling. DRAGOON GUARD pressed the pace outside of the leader, bid at the three-eighths pole, dueled and was outfinished. WINTERS LION was unrushed early, bid in the three path near the three-eighths pole and faltered. MALIBU SPRINGS stalked the pace inside, bid between foes on the far turn and faded. SECRET CHAT saved ground, angled to the five path near the three-eighths pole and lacked a late bid. HERN was off awkwardly and squeezed back at the start, stalked the pace in the four path and faded in the stretch. SIR SAFFER was clear early inside and gave way on the far turn.
