Chart notes

NABOKOV coaxed from the gate, tussled briefly with GRAYWING before settling three then two wide in closest aim of that leader, came under coaxing at the five-sixteenths pole, angled six wide into upper stretch, rallied to take command just inside the eighth pole, then edged clear to the finish to prevail. DOT'S DOLLAR broke in a step at the start, chased just off the inside and then along the inside under a ride from three furlongs out, angled six to seven wide at the top of the stretch, kept on to the wire. GRAYWING coaxed from the start, tussled early on with NABOKOV before that foe eased off, showed the way in hand along the inside through swift splits, came under encouragement with five-sixteenths to go, swung four to five wide into upper stretch, dug in under threat and was collared just inside the eighth pole, grew leg weary late while along safe for the show honors. HE'S GOT THIS chased along the inside under prolonged encouragement from the half mile pole, angled two to three wide into upper stretch, offered no response. SCREAMING UNCLE broke out at the start, chased four paths off the inside down the backstretch before tucking three then two wide through the turn placed to urging midway, angled out seven wide into upper stretch, weakened. GLINT broke a half a beat slow lunging smally and was away last, chased three to four paths off the inside down the backstretch, went three then two wide through the turn coming under coaxing with seven-sixteenths to run, tipped four wide at the head of the stretch and made no impact. EMERALD FOREST chased five paths off the inside down the backstretch and then three wide through the turn urged along with seven-sixteenths to go, angled out eight wide at the top of the stretch, tired.
