Chart notes
COLONEL YORKE settled off the pace but always in-range of the lead, hugged the rail into the stretch, then tipped out to the two path, quickly assumed command and drew off under a hand ride. MOR VICTORY hustled away to the early lead, was left alone to dictate moderate fractions, maintained a clear lead through the far turn, quickened into the stretch, but could not hold off the winner. PROVEN ADVOCATE slow early to be well off the leaders near the rear of the field, commenced a steady, long drive on the rail and finished with a late gain along the inside to be up for the show. REGAL TERKA raced in mid-pack, came out three-wide into the stretch, ran on some late, but was not good enough. SILVER ASSASSIN stalked the early pacesetter to the stretch then was outkicked in the final furlong. VINO TEXAS JESS veered outward at the start, settled in mid-pack early, then lacked a finish. KING ARTHUR RIDGE had to speed from the start, was last to cross to the main course, settled in the back, and never threatened. NORTH OF BALI settled far behind and lacked any response.
