Chart notes

BIGWRIGDUDE chased outside of rivals from the five path, ranged up under a drive in the four path to bid passing the quarter, swept to the lead at the top of the lane, tipped into the three path for the final furlong, drew clear around the sixteenth, and held firm. GIMME A CHANCE was prompted from in range in the three path, came under a drive midway around the turn, swung from the five path into the stretch, and ran on to be second best. POLAR WOLF rated inside, was roused from the two path midway around the turn, angled out to the five path in upper stretch, got stymied passing the furlong grounds, but kept on for show. SOUTHFORK raced up close along the inside but finished evenly in the three path down the stretch. BIG COUNTRY BOY set the pace in the three path, was ridden between foes in the two path around the turn, lost the lead passing the furlong grounds, then faded. STAUF tracked in the two path, rounded the turn while under a ride from the three path, floated out to the seven path at the top of the stretch, but flattened. ENDUE was wellback in the two path early and lacked a final bid. BEDAZZLINGSTRATEGY trailed in the two path early and made no impact. DENALI LIGHTNING pressed the pace in the four path, vied under a drive between foes in the three path around the turn, but yielded while back in the four path in the final furlong. JONESBOOGIE prompted the pace inside, led under a drive from the rail passing the quarter, but gave way in the stretch. HURRICANE COMIN raced off the pace in the four path but never threatened.
