Chart notes
VESPERA broke on top but was unable to contest the early lead despite coaxing from the rider, came under a full-out drive midway through the turn, responded, and took a short lead in upper stretch, and held sway under steady handling. AURORA'S MUSIC was initially three-wide with the second flight, made a forward move after passing the half-mile pole, loomed three-wide near the quarter pole, kept on gamely in the middle of the track, but was outfinished by the winner in the final yards. KHALI J rushed up to join NOT TODAY on the lead after a bit of a tardy start, dueled into the turn, responded when set down in upper stretch, but was outfinished in the late stages. LITTLE MISS MUNNY settled mid-pack early, was moving up towards the leaders when forced to steady slightly just past the half-mile pole, lost some position but came back under steady handling to improve a bit. NOT TODAY went quickly to the front, moved out to the two path, got some early pressure from KHALI J, then an additional threat from AURORA'S MUSIC late on the turn, and weakened in mid-stretch. VOTARY dropped far behind early and was never a threat. SACOS STOGIE raced up close three-wide to the turn, then was outrun from the three-furlong pole. SHE'S SO SEXY chased close up through the early stages, then drifted out about six or seven wide on the last bend and faltered in the stretch.
