Chart notes

LIVE A LITTLE made the lead soon after the start, set the pace along the inside past the quarter pole, gave up a narrow lead to the runner up near the three sixteenths pole then fought back gamely under left handed urging and got back up in time. SADIE'S GHOST stalked the early pace, rallied between horses two wide to gain a narrow lead at the three sixteenths pole then was no match for the winner. SWAYBACK MOBIL allowed to settle, found his best stride late three wide. DIXIE'S MEMORY never far back, finished determinedly four wide. RIVER BYE raced a wide trip and closed a gap late. STRIKE PLATE settled in the six path, moved closer three wide nearing the quarter pole then came up empty. OVID also raced wide and faded lane. DRILL CITY was no factor.
