Chart notes
LITEUPTHENITE was not asked for speed from the break, settled far back early, started to run on after passing the half, navigated a ground-saving trip through the far turn, tipped out three-wide for the stretch run, rallied and was up in the final yards. TIZ A TEN I SEE broke well, went to the lead while under a hold, vied inside of a pair of rivals to the half, then kicked on with KISS MY DICE, led the way into the stretch, finished willingly under steady handling and intermittent urging, but was outfinished by the winner in a good effort. KISS MY DICE pressed the pace from between rivals, was still with a chance in upper stretch, but was outkicked in the final yards. LANALUAH got caught four-wide on the first turn, then settled two-deep in the tracking group, continued wide through the turn, then flattened out in the stretch while being kept to task. MRS SHIRLEY tracked inside behind the trio up front, struggled to keep pace through the turn, and lacked a late bid. TIFFANY TAP lagged far back early, made a brief three-wide bid going into the far turn, but could not sustain the effort into the stretch. SHINOVAR off a step slow, rushed up to press the pace three-wide, was close up to the far turn, then weakened, and stopped in the stretch.
