Chart notes

COMMON DEFENSE drafted back to race mid pack, near the inside through the backstretch, made a three to two wide bid though the upper lane inside of rivals and finished strongly to widen its lead under a steady hand ride. BEE WELL raced with the second flight early on, three deep through the upper lane, altered in near the three sixteenths pole after waiting briefly, moved up but was no match for the winner racing near the rail. AMBITION raced mid pack down the backstretch, two deep through the far turn into the lane, shifted out five wide and moved up to improve position. TIME SONG showed good early speed racing just off the inside and weakened a bit the final eighth of a mile. MICKEY SHILLELAGH forwardly placed to lay up close early, four deep into the upper stretch and yielded late. MALCOLM X (PER) unhurried early racing near the back, angled out to race widest through the stretch run and never threatened. MY BOY TONY angled in early to save ground, continued its inside bid through the far turn into the lane and yielded through the drive. FORT THOMAS drafted back near the middle of the pace, raced five wide from the outside of rivals and had no response. KID CAIRO lag early on, raced four to six wide from the outside through the far turn and never threatened. CULPA raced four wide around the first turn, three deep around the far turn failed to sustain a bid. ALPHA OMEGA was done early, pulled up and walked off under his own power.
