Chart notes

FIRST TRUMPET was hustled from the gate, pressed the pace on the outside, turned up the pressure in the three path early on the turn, took the advantage outside the three-eighths pole, shook clear while remaining in the three path at the quarter-pole, extended the advantage under a drive into the final furlong, remained well clear into the final sixteenth and held under steady urging. GRAND COMMANDER dropped well off the pace while ridden along on the outside, traveled around the turn in the five path, turned into upper stretch under a drive, gained in the final furlong and finished with late energy to just get the place. AIRBORNE ELITE broke in at the start, was urged along on the outside in third position, went around the turn in the four path, spun into upper stretch under a drive, gained inside the runner-up with good courage late and just missed the place while well clear for the show. SOLO EMPIRE showed speed and set the pace on the inside of an opponent, was asked under threat while along the rail early on the turn, lost the advantage to the winner outside the three-eighths pole, dropped back into the stretch and tired. KISMEHOLDMETHRLME lacked speed under urging, moved closer late on the backstretch, shifted from the rail to the two path on the turn, turned into the stretch under the crop, came a bit further out in the drive and lacked the needed response. TAPIZAR'S TEMPER bumped soundly with a foe at the start then was squeezed back, moved from the three path to the five path on the turn, came into the stretch in the six path while under the crop, moved further out inside the three-sixteenths pole and failed to threaten. HEY BUDDY bumped soundly with a rival at the start, dropped back well off the pace, went around most of the turn in the two path, tipped to the three path briefly around the five-sixteenths pole before dropping back to the two path then the rail, remained on his inside lead in the stretch and faltered then was eased but walked off.
