Chart notes

JAVA TALES set a pressured pace, raced four wide through the turn, took control early stretch and drew off as an easy winner. HUMORESQUE tracked the early pace, went five wide into the turn, followed the winner, drifted in, second best. HIGH HEEL NATIVE was void of any early speed, raced five wide through the turn, drifted out far wide lane, passed tired rivals and was along for third. FORMAGGIO set a pressured early pace, raced off the rail through the turn and weakened. MISS IDA B chased the early pace, raced three wide into the turn, drifted out and faded. NO NEED TO ASK was unhurried early, raced six wide and offered no late rally. PANCHITA was outrun early, raced three wide and never fired.
