Chart notes

KING OF DRAGONS reserved at the back in the early going, taken to the inside, split foes at the quarter pole, steered out at the top of the lane, surged late from the middle portion of the track and drove past the runner-up approaching the wire. FEELING LUCKY was closest in pursuit from the two path, moved up on even terms at the half-mile pole, took over in upper stretch, cleared midstretch, drifted out and got run down by the winner. CARDIFF CRACK settled outside a rival, in hand on the backstretch, asked three then four wide on the far turn, tipped out for a clear run in the drive, rallied in deep stretch but got put in tight and steadied between foes late. VENTRY STRAND unhurried and taken to the inside, went between foes on the backstretch, asked two to three wide on the far turn, bumped between rivals in upper stretch, closed well in the final furlong and missed the show honors. STYLISHLYACCLAIMED followed in range in the two path, crept closer on the backstretch, came under a ride on the far turn, went three wide into the lane, chased within striking distance into the final furlong but went evenly late. TRUMP ERA grabbed the early lead and set the tone on the inside, headed at the half-mile pole, dueled around the far turn, lost the lead in upper stretch and weakened in the late stages. MOMENT OF VALOR settled off the rail then angled in for the clubhouse turn, closed in late on the second bend but could not summon the needed late kick. ALLEQUIN SUMMER traveled six wide leaving the chute, angled to the three path, fell out of range on the first turn, gained ground in the middle stages, angled to the four path around the far turn, bumped in upper stretch, checked between at the sixteenth pole and could not recover. SOGNO DI VINO took a stalking position on the inside, given his cue at the quarter pole, came a bit off the rail into the lane and weakened in the furlong grounds. NAFTIS pulled early first time through the stretch, tracked along the rail into the far turn, followed into the range while moving to the two path around the far turn and faded down the lane. CHROMEFLASH broke a step slow and lost a clear path at the start, traveled along the rail then in the two path racing near the back, traveled three deep on the backstretch, remained three wide to the stretch, angled out at the top of the lane and failed to menace. ORACLE OF PARADISE raced near the back on the inside, got put in a bit tight past the five-sixteenths pole, stayed on the inside and came up empty in the lane. THERE WAS A RIDER'S OBJECTION PLACED BY THE RIDER ABOARD CARIFF CRACK AGAINST FEELING LUCKY. AFTER A REVIEW, THE STEWARDS UNANIMOUSLY RULED THAT ALTHOUGH FEELING LUCKY DID DRIFT OUT AND BOTHER CARDIFF CRACK LATE, IT DID NOT WARRANT A DISQUALIFICATION.
