Chart notes

BLUE CHEESE slow early to be well off the pace, commenced a steady rally leaving the three-eighths pole, angled eight wide while losing the crop at the head of the stretch and finished with best bid to be clear late at the head of a blanket finish. GAME PORT tracked the leaders from the second flight to the quarter pole, forced to rally six wide and closed well to be up for the place. SCALLYWAG was well placed racing two wide saving ground through the turn, searched for racing room in upper stretch, found room along the rail, angled in to that opening and just missed the place spot with a rail bid. BIG NICKEL pressed the pace battling for the lead for a half mile and ran-on willingly through the lane in a good try. RHUM SAINT ESPRIT dueled on the lead gamely to mid-stretch and was outkicked by the closers late having done all the early work in a game effort. CRIME SPREE shuffled to the back a couple strides from the gate, was well back from the main body of the field into the turn, rallied following the winner on the bend, was fanned nine wide and showed good interest to be gaining late. MUD ON MY BOOTS stalked the pace to the top of the lane and lacked a closing punch in the final eighth. REBEL EMPIRE chased through the turn and faded to the rear in the stretch.
