Chart notes

GAMING WIZARD went to the front, showed the way under some pressure, dropped from the three path to the inside on the turn, drew off into the final furlong, ducked out outside the sixteenth-pole and proved much the best under steady urging. JACK'S WORLD was urged along well back in the field, angled from the inside to the five path on the turn and improved to get the place. HELLZ KITCHEN pressed then chased the pace on the outside, dropped from the four path to the two path on the turn and tired. KOTLIKOFF was off slow, dropped well behind the rest of the field, went around the turn in the four path and was no factor. TIM AND SAM raced just off the pace, moved from the rail to the three path under urging on the turn, moved inward in upper stretch and came up empty. SPEEDSTRE was forwardly placed on the outside, dropped back while moving from the three path to the five path on the turn and faltered. TWIRLING LAD pressed the pace on the inside of foes, dropped back while two path to the inside on the turn and capitulated. THE BLUE WAVE angled out early, was urged along towards the rear, dropped from the three path to the inside on the turn and faltered.
