Chart notes

MODO set the pace while clear and in hand while in the two path, remained under a nice hold and drop to the inside nearing the bend and drew clear under coaxing by the three sixteenths and then was put to left handed crop to remain clear to the wire while being kept to task to prove best. HER LAUGH was rated along three wide, advanced three to four wide on the turn and came four wide into the lane and finished willingly to gain the place award. ROSATO broke alertly while veering out, moved in to stalk the winner from the outside and was three wide on the turn and came three wide off the bend and lacked the needed closing kick while besting the rest. STRONG STATE was allowed to settle early, two to four wide on the turn and swung out seven wide leaving the bend to have a mild late kick gaining the fourth spot but needed more. LYNN'S MILKY WAY tracked the pace along the inside and was coaxed along on the turn to keep up and faded in the lane.
