Chart notes

TOO MUCH ACTION broke well, took command on the turn, and drew clear in the stretch. MIKEL W was the trailer to the stretch, then rallied to just get up to grab the place money. ZAVALA raced close up early, could not kick on with the eventual winner, then tagged at the wire for second. BLING MOUNTAIN settled near the back and was mildly gaining in the stretch. JOSH'S DREAM was in range early, bid four-wide into the stretch, then flattened out in mid-stretch. DUST EM raced in the middle of the pack, then lacked a finish. TEAM GORMLEY pressed the pace three-wide to the head of the stretch, then gave way. JOLLY SAMURAI was never a factor. BLING BLING BLING was under pressure from the start, gave way before the quarter pole, and faded.
