Chart notes

LEGAL JARGON tracked close up five-wide, moved up to challenge for the lead approaching the three-furlong pole, battled with DRAGON HUNTER to mid-stretch, and pulled away in the final furlong. DRAGON HUNTER jumped out to the early lead, was joined past the five-furlong pole by JACE, briefly dueled inside of that one into the turn, then had to deal with LEGAL JARGON from the three-furlong pole, battled gamely on the inside through the stretch, then gave way grudgingly with about a furlong left to run. CINDY'S LAST SONG broke well and raced between horses in the middle of the pack on the backstretch, came four-wide into the stretch, altered course at the top of the stretch towards the inside, and finished well despite lugging in through the stretch run to gain the third spot. MARKAWAY broke in and bumped hard with SHALLOWBROOK, pulled to the front after the start despite restraint from the rider, backed off after passing the half, then came back on late on the turn and finished with some interest while never being a serious threat. SHALLOWBROOK got bumped hard by MARKWAWY at the start and was last down the backstretch, advanced four to five wide through the turn, continued into the stretch, and flattened out. BOAZ raced four to seven wide throughout and lacked a finish. RIVERS OF WEALTH broke well, but backed up through the field after the start, raced in mid-pack three-wide between rivals, dropped out past the three-furlong pole, and had little to offer in the stretch. JACE broke awkwardly to the inside after the start to be last away, rushed up to join the leader at the nine-sixteenths marker, dueled into the turn, then started a steady retreat leaving the three-furlong pole, and slowed to a walk in the stretch.
