Chart notes

CARIBBEAN PLEASURE broke very sharp, accelerated quickly around the turn, held safe driving through the lane. OPTIMISTIC NATE broke very slow, circled five wide upper, furious rally outside rivals through the final sixteenth, in time for the place award. CAJUN JOE shuffled off heels of injured foe leaving the chute, regained momentum four wide into the lane, chased on well late, nipped for the place at the wire. GOLD FIBER broke a step slow, chased three wide upper, running on the wrong lead between rivals, evened out through the wire. TIZAFASTBULLET pressed inside around the turn, clean trip along the rail through the lane, flattened out late. SECESSION pressed through the chute, injured three eighths, left the track via the equine ambulancfe.
