Chart notes

CHECKER'S SONG lacked speed, circled the turn three wide, swung to the five path in mid stretch, closed determinedly and was up near the finish. FIND THE LIGHT , four deep leaving the backstretch, bid for the lead entering the turn, dueled throughout and just missed in a game performance. SCATTERED MISCHIEF , five wide leaving the backstretch, challenged for the lead entering the stretch then dueled in a game effort. ITTY BITTY BABY bumped with IM ON EDGE at the start, showed brief speed near the inner rail, dropped back on the turn, eased outside in mid stretch and passed tired rivals. LIGHT A SHUCK , outrun, passed faders late. BLAKE'S SONG dueled from the two path on the turn and weakened in upper stretch. I'M ON EDGE bumped with ITTY BIBBY BABY at the start, dueled, saved ground on the turn and weakened. CALEB'S CANDY , outrun, stayed near the inner rail on the turn.
