Chart notes

INORDINARY forced the pace while three wide, responded to his cue leaving the turn, took over at the three-sixteenths pole and edged clear under steady pressure. SURFIN' M set a contested pace, held the advantage into the stretch, proved no match but kept on to secure the place spot. DISPERSION raced striking position while four wide, was urged to improve his position on the turn, went four wide into the stretch and offered a mild bid. WEAPONIZED saved ground, remained inside for the stretch run and stayed on. CARCAR EXPRESS prompted the early pace, got outpaced on the turn and came up empty in the final eighth. VALIANT AWARD was always outrun. MOUNTAIN WOLF off a step slowly, chased the contested pace for a half mile and weakened.
