Chart notes

HAUT LES COEURS forwardly placed in the early going while outside of runners, tracked the pace three wide to the backstretch, roused into the far turn then vied for the lead at the quarter pole, took command into upper stretch and drew clear at the furlong marker, kept to task to the final sixteenth and was ridden out late. LATE NITE LIZZIE got crowded some at the start and was last away from the gate, was unhurried to the backstretch, made a steady gain to the far turn, swung four wide to upper stretch, was no match for the winner into the final furlong but rallied late for the place honors. LITTLE MISS MUNNY sent leaving the start, contested the early pace then took command into the first turn, yielded to DERBY DAY KISS along the backstretch and stalked that rival into the far turn, saved ground to the quarter marker, tipped out to upper stretch, could not muster the needed response in the final sixteenth and was outkicked for the place, while holding clearly for the show. BUCKEYE CRUISER allowed to settle early, trailed to the far turn, made a mild late gain but did not threaten in the final stages. DERBY DAY KISS was prominent in the early running, stalked the pace to the first turn then took command into the backstretch run, set the pace to the quarter pole, was overtaken into upper stretch then faded in the final furlong. BOOTSY'S MERLOT rated nicely while saving ground in the early stages, was well placed to the half-mile pole, angled out and chased at the quarter pole, ran in pursuit three to four wide into the stretch, could not muster the needed response at the furlong grounds and weakened late.
