Chart notes

DEACON JONES rated off of the early pace, saved ground to the turn then angled out, set down three wide to upper stretch, rallied from the four to five path in the lane, took command at the sixteenth-marker then edged clear in the late stages. BIG DUCK vied for the early lead then took command, set the pace from off of the rail along the backstretch, dueled outside of BOY CHARLIE into the turn, continued to battle that foe into upper stretch, drifted to the three to four path into the lane, overtaken into the final sixteenth, couldn't match strides late with the winner and held well for second. BOY CHARLIE forward early, went up to press the pace from the inside, disputed the pace to the quarter pole then vied for the lead to upper stretch, continued to battle from the rail into the final furlong, was outkicked in the final sixteenth, missed for second and was a clear third. LIVE AFFAIR took back and settled outside, asked four wide to upper stretch, needed more in the lane and finished evenly. GIRLIE'S MAX close up to the early pace while between runners, stalked the pace to the turn, dropped back along the bend then came up empty in the stretch.
