Chart notes

BRIGHTSHININGLIGHT , fractious in the starting gate, stalked the pace while saving ground around the turn, worked outside in mid stretch, closed and took the lead approaching the finish. BALTIC sprinted to the early lead, set the pace slightly off the rail and gave way grudgingly. SE THAR BARR trailed to the stretch, worked between horses and rallied nicely. MATTHEW'S TICKET chased the pace, took aim on the leader in mid stretch and gave way inside horses. M D FIELDSTONE broke slowly, circled the turn four wide and failed to menace in an even effort. FLATTER MY DAD raced between horses on the turn, moved to the inner rail in mid stretch and weakened. GARAGE BEERS was checked in close quarters along the inner rail entering the stretch. COWBOY ROY chased the pace outside horses around the turn and faltered in upper stretch.
