Chart notes

RESEMBLANCE stalked from inside, angled out on the backstretch, chased three, four, then five wide on the far turn, challenged from outside at the three-sixteenths pole, battled three deep late and edged inner rivals for the score. PLEASE FOCUS pressed from outside around the first turn, stalked the leader up the backstretch, drew alongside once again with three furlongs remaining, took over at the five-sixteenths pole, showed the way from the four path turning for home, met bids from both sides down the lane and yielded grudgingly late. SPEED GRAZY sat off the pace on the inside then moved to the two path on the clubhouse turn, chased outside a rival in the middle stages, rounded the far turn two wide then found the rail and put to the left hand, cut the corner into the lane, bid inside the top pair and finished gamely to the line. MIGHTY KAI bumped with inner rival leaving the gate, angled to the three path trailing the field, stayed off the rail up the backstretch, came five wide into the lane and passed tired rivals. MORELLO bobbled and bumped at the start, chased four then three wide early, remained well off the rail into the far turn, spun six wide into the stretch and flattened out. J T'S WATCH settled on the inside, crept closer on the backstretch, saved ground to the stretch and weakened. ATOMIC DROP hustled to the front and moved inward, pressured around the first turn then cleared into the backstretch, took pressure at the three-eighths pole, was overtaken at the five-sixteenths pole and folded.
