Chart notes

HARD PERFORMER was hustled early, took command on the turn and from the three path at the top of the stretch was much the best. TANIST was in touch, roused on the turn and from the five path at the top of the stretch was up for place. SILENT MORT was away alertly and forced the pace on the turn but flattened out through the stretch. SASSAGOULA RIVER was off slow and had a mild gain on the turn but from the five path at the top of the stretch evened out. FRAC CITY was in range early and hustled along on the turn but from the six path at the top of the stretch had no impact. BLAZING SONG was off slow and showed nothing while outrun. MIXED UP MISFIT lost his rider at the start and walked off.
