Chart notes

JUDY CHOP stalked the pacesetter to the turn, steadily closed the gap on the bend, took control turning for home and drew off as much best while kept to task with intermittent reminders down the lane. NICOLE'S WILL tracked the leaders down the backside from afar in a clear pocket well ahead of the trailing group, rallied with a grinding bid under an early drive on the turn and kept-on to take the place. FRENCHMAN JAMES steadied shortly away from the gate to drop well off the lead at the head of the trailers and found best stride late to surge between rivals to gain the show. VIOLIN FINGERS took up leaving the gate to drop to the rear, moved up entering the turn to be mid-pack still well off the leaders and finished with mild interest without impact. SO GRAND rushed to the lead shortly from the gate to go clear early, had no answer when engaged leaving the quarter pole and gave way through the lane. HOME OPENER was never a factor.
