Chart notes

LIGHTNING RUN vied with an outer rival while remaining in the three path around the first turn, ceded the front to his outer counterpart before stalking outside of that one down the backstretch, moved to vie into the far turn, led while moving out to the three to four path in upper stretch and held firm. DON'S JOY tracked three wide, then tow wide around the far turn, tipped out to take aim on his newly leading stable-mate from the four to five path in upper stretch, ranged up to bid in midstretch but was fended off through the final furlong then saved place from an inner foe at the wire. RISKY WAVE was brushed between horses at the start, pursued from midpack in the two path, ran on to aim inside of the leading pair in the final furlong but missed place at the wire. PATRON SILVER laid off of the pace along the inside, then two wide into the backstretch, shifted to the three path around the far turn, advanced before moving out to the five to six path in midstretch and ran on evenly. SUMMER DATE saved ground off of the pace, shifted to the five path into upper stretch and stayed on willingly. PAMPERED lacked speed along the inside, swung to the six path in upper stretch and stayed on mildly. TAMMY'S KISS tracked along the inside, chased from further back around the far turn and gave way. RED RAINBOW brushed with an inner foe at the start, vied for the lead with an inner foe while kept in the four path around the first turn, led into the backstretch, tucked to the inside leaving the five furlong pole, vied with his outer counterpart around the far turn then weakened in upper stretch. MAXIES BUBBLE GUM brushed with an outer foe at the start, tracked two wide and between horses, chased along the inside around the far turn then weakened. MODERN ESCAPE was off slow and slow early on, trailed in the two to three path and got outrun.
