Chart notes

EDITOR came out at the start, trailed the short field in the four path, lacked a response to urging and spotted the other pair multiple lengths approaching the turn, yet began to progress into the final furlong, closed in late to bid outside of the leaders in the final sixteenth and drove past nearing the wire. NASH POTATOES prompted outside of the leader, vied turning for home, dueled while wresting an advantage leaving upper stretch but got caught by an outer challenger late. IMPERIAL RULER set the pace as an outer foe applied firm pressure into and around the turn, dueled with that one in upper stretch, got headed coming to the final furlong then yielded late.
