Chart notes

IF I WERE YOU tracked in the four path, ranged up to bid outside of the leader at the quarter pole and drove clear. FORE FLAG vied for the lead with an outer rival while remaining in the the three path around the first turn, moved to the two path with five furlongs to go, disposed of his outer counterpart nearing the far turn, but was collared by an outer bidder at the quarter pole and got bested. THEO'S THUNDER laid off of the pace in the two path, ran on between horses while shifting out in the late stages and reached show at the wire. STRENGTHNGUIDANCE tracked along the inside after steadying behind a foe into the first turn, chased the leaders around the far turn, but lacked a bid and lost show at the wire. ARTICLE stalked two wide and between horses, secured position among foes into the far turn, chased in the three path turning for home, moved out into upper stretch but lacked a challenge while hanging on his left lead and yielded while getting floated out late. LEGAL MANEUVER raced off of the pace in the four path and failed to factor. KOHAKU vied outside of the leader and from the four path, then in the three path passing the five furlong pole, but faded between rivals entering the far turn.
