Chart notes

TWISTED HUMOR sprinted out to a comfortable lead, showed the way unchallenged around the bend, drew away when asked left handed in upper stretch and padded the lead in the final furlong. PERFECT SMILE brushed inner rival leaving the gate, chased two wide into turn, loomed in the two path turning for home, could not summon the needed kick to reach the winner but stayed on to secure second. EMBRACING AUTISM tracked in the four path leaving the backstretch, moved into the three path on the turn, lacked the needed rally but was able to keep on to earn the show honors. FREE NOMINATION stalked outside a rival into the turn, spun three wide into the stretch and weakened. BEAUTY JENNY brushed leaving the gate, settled inside, ridden along through the turn and failed to menace. GRANDE RIVIERE broke a step slow and got floated in leaving the gate, trailed inside a rival into the turn, saved ground to the stretch and never made an impact. SHEDUNIT raced outside GRANDE RIVIERE leaving the backstretch, took the turn two to three wide and was never a factor.
