Chart notes

FAST FLAME broke sharp, showed speed to quarter, held sway through the lane, drew away into the final sixteenth, ridden out. KENTUCKY CAJUN stalked two wide to turn, kept at bay into the stretch, was no match late for the winner, held well for second. BLESSED ASSURANCE bobbled start, trailed to quarter, swung widest to upper stretch, closed for third. BELEOUT settled to turn, asked four wide upper, gained to mid-stretch, flattened out late. HOPEITSMYLUCKYDAY rated off early pace, bid between two wide upper, weakened. LIAM'S MIST settled to turn, asked three wide upper, tired stretch. GRACEFUL STAR off step slow, in bit tight early, chased inside to turn, empty in the drive.
