Chart notes

CARCAR EXPRESS set a clear pace into the backstretch, lugged to the three path while coming under right handed urging around the far turn, shook free of an outer presser while drifting to the six path in upper stretch, shifted inwardly in the final furlong and held firm from an inner challenger late. PAIRED settled in the two path, rallied to bid inside of the leader in the final sixteenth but was fended off. FITZGERALD stalked the clear leader from the two path, crept into striking range in the four path around the far turn, but got floated to the seven path while being repelled in upper stretch, kept on and narrowly saved show from an inner pair at the wire. WEEKEND REVEILLE tracked three wide, chased in the five path around the far turn, floated to the seven path in upper stretch, tucked down to the five to four path in midstretch then stayed on between rivals to miss show. THE REINBOW FACTOR trailed along the inside, moved out to the five path and between rivals leaving upper stretch then stayed on mildly to miss show. BIG ROG chased along the inside but lacked a bid and gave way.
