Chart notes

BIG BUCKSALOT unhurried, advanced steadily five then four wide, made the lead early on the far turn, drew off quickly under left handed urging and won as much the best. PAYNTER'S CANVAS trailed early, circled rivals five wide through the stretch and finished clear for second. VLADISLAV unhurried early, passed tiring rivals in the six path through deep stretch. VERBIER pressed the pace two wide, made the lead nearing the half mile marker, set the pace into the far turn, kept on into the stretch then came up empty late. WHY NOT ME stalked the pace four then three wide, improved position on the far turn then weakened. BROADWAY SKY set the pace along the inside for nearly a half mile and was through after half. AULD LANGE SYNE close from the start, moved closer along the rail before a half mile then came up empty. GALILEE had speed for a half then flattened out.
