Chart notes

THE KING CHEEK prompted TACTICAL HJMOR while racing two-wide, took the lead from that one nearing the eighth pole and drew clear late. TACTICAL HUMOR saved ground setting the pace, responded when headed h THE KING CHEEK nearing the eighth pole but was unable to match strides with him late. HARDY CHOICE was allowed to settle, came four-wide into the stretch and finished in a mild rally. FIGHTERTOWN was forwardly placed while racing three-wide and went evenly late. STRAWBERRY TREAT was unhurried early, came four-wide into the stretch and failed to seriously threaten. GUN RIGHT saved ground racing in the middle of the field but lacked a rally when asked. RUSTYS GFIVEFIFTY was allowed to settle early while racing two-wide and tired. STATELY ORDER saved ground racing in the back of the field and was not a factor.
