Chart notes

BOREALIS TRAIL was bumped inside at the start, gathered himself trailing in the early going, made little progression along the backside, began to reach for more ground inside runners at the five sixteenths pole, moved back outside at the quarter marker, had a full head of steam between rivals in the three path coming to the eighth pole, switched leads finding another gear dueling outside the leader with a sixteenth still to run and drove by to win going away in the end. MANSETTI broke out on the start, had the lead just off the fence setting a moderate pace, continued up top narrowly inside runners down the backstretch, shook loose at the half mile marker rationing out his speed, had a diminishing advantage at the quarter pole trying to get a breather on the far turn, spurted away mildly in the two path in upper stretch, drifted out fighting inside up front with a sixteenth from home but could not withstand the late charge outside by the winner in deep stretch. WAGSTAFF settled on the outside of another tracking the lead threesome, loped along in mid-pack outside foes down the back straight, made a sharp move circling four wide at the quarter pole, loomed in the four path at the top of the lane, was no match for the lead duo who had it to themselves at the furlong pole and finished up evenly, just lasting for the third place share in a tight finish. HE'S NOT JOKING had a stalking trip on the fence in the early stages, was nudged for run at the five sixteenths pole, could not quicken with the eventual winner inside two furlongs from home, angled to the five path turning for home, kept on fighting to the end unable to get to the lead pair but dug in late just missing the nod for the show award. SPECIAL SESSION was forwardly placed prompting the leader outside, three wide on the first turn, pulled the rider even closer three deep down the backside, closed back in three wide in between rivals with a quarter mile to run, had little left at the top of the lane and weakened three wide between foes at the furlong marker. PRETTY CAPABLE was brushed on the inside at the break, had the rail nestled behind the engaged trio early on, travelled well under a good rhythm watching the lead three down the back straight, moved in at the three furlong pole, was scrubbed for more chasing the pacesetter inside two others at the quarter marker, could not continue on in the stretch drive and tired in the two path by upper stretch between horses. RUNAWAY AGAIN broke outwards on the start, pressed the issue with runners on each side on the first turn, vied between rivals under a tight hold down the backside, was urged for more at the three furlong marker, dropped back abruptly at the five sixteenths pole being engulfed by runners making a run, trailed the field at the top of the stretch and was not persevered with in the final furlong.
