Chart notes

MINISTERIAL went around the first turn in the two path, was well placed down the backstretch, stalked the leader while moving from the inside to the three path on the far turn, spun into the stretch in the four path, chased under a strong drive into the final furlong, gained to make a bid coming to the sixteenth-pole and got up to prevail under strong urging. BEST BET went to the front, dropped from the three path to the two path on the first turn, showed the way down the backstretch, raced inside on the far turn, was asked outside the quarter-pole, spun into the stretch in the three path, led under a drive into the final sixteenth but was caught while clear for the place. BOB JOHN RAY dropped from the four path to the three path on the first turn, moved in on the backstretch, came under urging approaching the half-mile pole, went around most of the far turn in the two path then dropped to the rail and lacked the needed response while best of the rest. FIRST TRUMPET saved ground on the first turn, moved off the rail very late on that bend, tracked outside on the backstretch, chased in the three path on the far turn and tired. HE'S GOT THIS traveled around the first turn in the two path, settled off the pace, was urged along while inside to the three path on the far turn and failed to rally. UNBRIDLED BOMBER was off slow and spotted the front a few lengths, settled well back in the field, was urged along in the three then four path on the far turn, spun into the stretch in the five path and failed to threaten. ERIC FROM MIAMI stumbled severely at the start and was off slow, dropped well behind the rest of the field, raced in the three to four path on the turns and was eased but walked off.
