Chart notes

QUIZLER vied two wide for the lead under confident handling, dueled on the far turn, responded when roused, gained command near the sixteenth marker and held on late for the win. ALWAYS TRUE raced off the pace between rivals, advanced inside on the far turn, angled out entering the stretch, rallied three wide, closed well late and was gaining at the finish. NO MORE WAR raced off the pace inside, steadied on the first turn, continued inside, moved up on the turn, swung wide turning for home and rallied late outside. STEELIN BASES vied inside for the lead, dueled on the far turn, dug in gamely inside in the stretch run and weakened late. BATTLE OF DOVER broke in the air and was off slowly, raced three wide on the first turn, settled off the rail, off the pace, went three wide on the far turn and failed to rally. GRAND DAVID raced three wide early, stalked two wide, chased two wide on the far turn and lacked a rally. O CAPTAIN tracked inside, saved ground on the far turn and weakened.
