Chart notes

ROCKIES BALBOA led inside of a pair of prompters early on, vied with his widest counterpart turning for home, clung to an advantage through midstretch then inched clear in the final furlong. LINCOLN'S LAW pressed three wide, vied outside of the eventual winner while remaining in the three path around the turn, was fended off before failing to sustain terms in the final furlong and held place. MCCANN saved ground in midpack, inched closer into the lane, shifted out to the three path in upper stretch, hung on his left lead while sustaining pursuit but missed place at the wire. SEVENTIES MUSIC broke slowly, lagged behind in the three to two path, swung out to the six to seven path into upper stretch and rallied willingly. BLACKSMITH raced off of the pace in the four to six path into the lane and moved up. IT'S OUR TIME stalked in the two path, pursued in the two to three path around the turn, chased in the four path and between horses into the lane but lacked a bid. MUNNINGS CHALLENGE brushed with an inner foe at the start, prompted two wide and between horses, stalked his counterparts with three furlongs to go, but chased into the lane and faded. DOUBLECENTS brushed with an outer rival leaving the gate, tracked three to four wide, floated to the five path into the lane and weakened. TEDDER broke a step slow, raced off of the pace in the two path and failed to factor.
