Chart notes

FOUR BEACH FRIENDS tacked the early leaders, was a factor on the turn and from the three path at the top of the stretch was kept to task. ASTIN STYLE was in touch, raced evenly on the turn and from the five path at the top of the stretch finished well. SLIGHTLY NAUGHTY set a pressured pace and had a slim lead on the turn but gave way through the stretch. SUNSET SKIPPY was unhurried early, had a mild gain on the turn and from the three path at the top of the stretch was up for a share. GRAN GHOST was off slow and closed the gap on the turn but from the seven path at the top of the stretch was no real threat. SASSAGOULA RIVER broke poorly, trailed the field on the turn and from the eight path at the top of the stretch passed tired foes. HEAVYLIKEACHEVY forced the early pace and dueled on the turn but from the four path at the top of the stretch had nothing left. WOODGLEN COURT was off the pace, showed little and from the six path at the top of the stretch was outrun. SPIRITUAL MAN was in range and roused from the inside on the turn but had no response.
