Chart notes

BOTTAS settled on the inside, was roused on the far turn, moved to the three path outside the quarter-pole, rallied in the four path into the stretch, closed well to make a bid between foes coming to the furlong marker, brushed with a rival at that point, was carried in while battling with the runner-up near the sixteenth-pole, fought with that foe to the finish and narrowly prevailed under strong urging. HEEERE'S JOHNNY bumped with rivals on both sides at the start, settled off the inside, was roused with three furlongs to run, moved to the three path midway through the far turn, rallied in the five path into the stretch, closed well to make a bid outside the furlong marker, drifted in while battling the winner near the sixteenth-pole, dueled with that foe to the finish and was denied while able to get the place. LET'S BE FRANK angled in before the first turn, rounded that bend in the two path, settled at the rear while given cover, moved out from the cover after being put to urging near the five-eighths pole, went around the far turn in the three then four path, moved out under a drive in the stretch and finished with good energy for the show. SCOPE was hustled from the gate then taken in hand early, saved ground on the first turn, was reserved towards the rear, raced inside while roused on the far turn, swung out to the four path into the stretch, moved further out in the drive and improved to get the last spot in the superfecta. NOBLE DYNASTY was taken in hand early then reserved in the two path, came under urging on the far turn, spun into the stretch in the three path and lacked the needed kick. CAPITAL PARTNER (GB) brushed with a foe at the start, became rank under restraint when given cover early, raced in the three path on the first turn, was rated with cover, came under urging in the two then three path on the far turn, chased into upper stretch, brushed with a foe while making a bid nearing the furlong marker but weakened. TELEPORT (IRE) broke in and bumped with a rival, was well placed just off the pace on the inside, came under urging on the far turn, chased under a drive into the final furlong then paused and tired. TRUMAN'S COMMANDER was hustled to the front, showed the way on the inside, was given his cue on the far turn, led under a drive into the final furlong then was collared and gave way. BAYTOWN DREAMER stalked the pace on the outside in the two path, engaged the leader on the far turn, was asked coming to the quarter-pole, battled under a drive into the final furlong and also tired. BALL OF FIRE bumped with a rival at the start, settled on the inside, was roused with three furlongs to run, saved ground into the stretch and failed to rally. This race had a timing discrepancy or malfunction and was re-timed using video technology to arrive at the most accurate time.
