Chart notes

DOUBLE EDGE SWORD challenged for the early advantage, took the lead around the turn, drove clear and held on for the win. HELLADIC raced in the middle of the field, came around the turn on the outside, made a late bid and needed more. BRITERDAYZAHEAD pressed the early pace, came around the turn on the outside and lacked a kick. WATER TESTER lacked early speed, moved up, but was no factor. ASTROLOGYSPROTEGE showed brief speed and faded. SAFE BET void of early speed, entered the home stretch wide and was never a threat. PINEHURST (IRE) raced evenly near the back and showed little. DETECTIVE BERNARDO dueled on the front end in the beginning, dropped back and was outrun.
