Chart notes

CUANDO went to the front, showed the way on the inside with a clear advantage, extended the advantage on the far turn, responded well when asked near the quarter-pole then came under a strong hand-ride in upper stretch, was put to a left-handed crop inside the furlong marker and proved best under strong urging. WICKED IMPROBABLE bumped with a rival at the start, dropped from the two path to the inside on the first turn, settled off the pace, was roused while inside on the far turn, came off the rail under a drive into the stretch and finished with good courage to just get the place. DISCLAIMER bumped with a foe at the start, saved ground on the first turn, settled towards the rear, was asked in the two path on the far turn, swung out to the five path into upper stretch and improved to just miss the place while up for the show. IN THE DARK was keen under restraint into the first turn, dropped from the two path to the rail while continuing to tug hard on the bit going around that bend, was rated just off the pace, moved from the rail to the two path while chasing on the far turn, pursued the winner under a drive in the stretch and lacked the needed kick. VINTAGE VINO rounded the first turn in the two path, settled towards the back, was roused in the three path on the far turn, turned into upper stretch under a drive and failed to threaten. FATEFUL LIGHTNING saved ground while unhurried at the rear, was roused on the far turn and failed to rally. SNARE traveled around the first turn in the three path, was reserved on the outside, raced in the three path while asked on the far turn, turned into upper stretch in the five path and failed to respond. ANTIETAM established a forward position early, dropped from the four to the three path on the first turn, stalked the pace on the outside, chased in the two then three path on the far turn and tired. HELLACIOUS tugged on the bit early, had the rider fall back in the saddle while between foes into the first turn, moved from the three path to the two path on that bend, was forwardly placed on the outside, came under urging in the two path on the far turn, dropped back into the stretch and capitulated.
