Chart notes

BIGFOOT SIGHTING void of early speed, saved ground around the final turn, rallied down the rail and drove clear before the wire. STEPPIN SILVER pressed pace, forwardly placed throughout, drifted out down the home stretch, couldn't match strides with the winner, but was a clear second. STEEL VENOM raced within contention, had an outside trip and proved no match for the top two. YOU GOOD vied for the early advantage, forwardly placed throughout and just missed the show position. WHISKEY AND EASY dueled on the front end, saved ground around the second turn and faded. INSIGNIS lacked early speed, saved ground around the second turn, drifted out down the stretch, moved up, but was no factor. SAUCY ARGUMENT raced near the middle of the field, weakened and finished evenly. IT'S A SECRET lacked early speed, moved up to within striking and was finished early. SLAVA UKRAINI always raced closer to the back and showed little. EL MERO MERO reared at the start, left at post and was eased to the wire. A STEWARDS INQUIRY WAS CALLED INTO THE START OF THE RACE. AFTER VIEWING REPLAYS NO ACTION WAS TAKEN.
