Chart notes

FINAL SCORE set the pace while vying with an outer rival into the backstretch, led narrowly inside of a pair of rivals around the far turn, drew clear in midstretch and held sway. TURF STAR broke inwardly, stalked along the inside, took aim inside of the leader coming to the final furlong, switched to aim outside of that one nearing the final sixteenth and ran on to be second best. GORDON PASS broke a step slow before being put to tight quarters between horses at the start, rated at the rear along the inside, launched a rally to split foes five wide in midstretch then reeled in show at the wire. DR. AGNE stalked three wide, bid around the far turn, chased the leaders in upper stretch, stayed on through the final furlong but got nailed by an outer rival for show. EXONERATE laid off of the pace two wide and between horses, took the far turn in the four path, shifted out to the seven path before brushing an outer rival in upper stretch, then ran on willingly. AWESOME CONNECTION stalked two wide and between horses, came under a brief hold as an outer rival shifted across his path around the first turn, pursued among foes around the far turn, chased along the inside into the final furlong but lacked a bid. J J GREY pursued from midpack in the two path, came under urging in the three path and between rivals around the far turn, paused momentarily behind foes in upper stretch then kept on mildly. BLINGING IT BACK broke on top but was wrangled off of the pace early on, pursued from midpack in the three path got rank entering the backstretch, pursued in the four path and between horses around the far turn, chased and yielded through the final furlong. VINTUR broke outwardly and bumped a rival while off slow, raced at the rear in the three to five path, got brushed after fanning to the eight path into the lane and failed to factor. REPENTLESS broke a step slow, saved ground off of the pace, lacked a response to urging around the far turn, encountered light traffic in midstretch and lacked a bid. PASSWORD raced off of the pace in the four path, got briefly keen entering the backstretch, took the far turn in the five to six path then gave way between horses. CASA CIELO was bumped by an inner foe leaving the gate, pressed three to two wide around the first turn, vied down the backstretch, then between horses around the far turn but weakened in midstretch.
