Chart notes

COOL COUPLE was under a ride from the start to get forward position, was driven three-wide at the top of the stretch to bid for the lead, had trouble with the lead change, but still finished strong under steady handling and held clear from a mild bid on the outside in the final yards. ASK ISAAC was the distant early trailer, then rallied in the stretch to gain the place. QUARANTINO settled near the back of the main pack through the early stages, bid four-wide into the stretch, loomed a threat but was outfinished in the final furlong. SAILINGTHEISLANDS hustled from the break, settled in a stalking position along the rail, was stuck behind horses late on the turn, finished with interest when clear in the stretch, but lacked the needed response to threaten. DAYTONA GOLD outpaced early, raced four to five wide throughout, then made mild gains late while never posing a serious threat. PRINSIPITO broke well, then was always close up through the early stages, dropped back on the turn, then lacked a finish. EILEEN'S DESPERADO was quickest from the gate and made the early pace, tried to fight back when NO AUTHORITY challenged near the half-mile pole, got the best of that rival in upper stretch, but tired from those efforts and faded late. NO AUTHORITY hustled up after a bit of a tardy start to bid for the lead near the half-mile pole, got a head in front early on the turn but found a stubborn foe on the inside, came into the stretch on the wrong lead, and faltered.
