Chart notes

WITT'S LIL RINGER showed good speed away from the start, vied for the early lead from between foes then set the pace to the turn, shook free into the bend and showed the way to the quarter pole, drew off while in hand into upper stretch, was given a reminder tap of the crop into the final sixteenth and held sway to the wire. TIFFANY TAP settled off of the early pace, advanced two then three wide nearing the quarter marker, ran in pursuit of WITT'S LIL RINGER into the upper stretch, rallied while on the left lead into the final sixteenth, could not reel in the winner late but was well clear of the rest for second. WHISPERIN LIZ was forwardly placed in the early stages, chased three then wide into the turn, could not keep pace with the winner into the lane, weakened in the final sixteenth but held safely in the end for third. PARTY GAL got shuffled at the start and trailed in the early going, saved ground into the turn, swung widest to upper stretch, kept on into the final furlong but could not muster the needed late response. LOVEREIGNORME settled in the second flight and tracked outside of foes along the backstretch, advanced three to four wide into the turn, was outkicked to upper stretch then gave way in the drive. PURLY DIALED IN broke in at the start, was hustled to be forwardly placed in the early stages, saved ground into the turn and dropped back along the bend, coaxed two to three wide into the stretch and passed tiring rivals late. CHARLIE'S A ROCKIN got crowded at the start and broke a step slowly, was hard sent in the early stages and pressed the pace inside of WITT'S LIL RINGER heading to the turn, dropped back along the turn then tired in the stretch drive. CHARGENLUCKY was crowded at the start and off slowly, settled off of the early pace, coaxed four to five wide into the turn, lacked the needed response to upper stretch and did not factor late. VANCOUVER VALOR settled in the second flight early on, tracked the pace between rivals along the backstretch, ran in pursuit three to four wide nearing the quarter pole, lacked the needed response in upper stretch and came up empty in the final stages.
