Chart notes

LIFE RAFT vied outside for the lead, took over on the turn, drew clear, responded when roused, dug in gamely in the final furlong and narrowly held on at the wire. ARIA D tracked on the inside, chased between rivals on the turn, rallied three wide into the stretch, commenced a late bid in deep stretch outside of LIFE RAFT and just missed. COUNT MY BLESSINGS stalked two wide early on, chased three wide on the turn, finished evenly and held for third. GYPSY STYLE raced off the pace, saved ground on the turn and rallied mildly inside in the final furlong. HAVE A HAPPY steadied at the half mile marker, raced off the pace, between rivals at the quarter pole, angled out and had no rally. MY ALENA MARIE steadied at the half mile marker, raced off the pace, went three wide past the quarter pole and failed to threaten. LUCIANA vied inside for the lead, dropped back on the turn and tired. ONE BAD HABIT raced off the rail, off the pace and did not factor.
