Chart notes

DADDY'S CODE set a pressured pace, drew off on the turn, widened in the drive, was much the best and won easily. HIGHSTAKES HUSTLER was slow early, steadily advanced in an outside trip and got up late for place. RUNNING RAGGED raced mid pack, rallied into the turn, bid five wide entering the stretch, couldn't gain ground and was caught for second. JAMESY'S EMPIRE pressed the pace, dropped back on the turn, weakened in the drive and steadily faded. SEIZETHEDAYDUDE saved ground, lacked a stretch response and was outrun. INSTAMATICAL was void of early speed, trailed the field and passed a tiring rival. TIZ MARKS SPIRIT broke out while away alertly, pressed the pace four wide, was through early, stopped and not urged late.
