Chart notes

TICO GRANDE broke sharp, set swift solo pace along the rail into the far turn, repelled outside challenger approaching the furlong marker, dug in gamely through the final stages for the score. DORADO methodically advanced down the backside, worked into striking range two wide around the far turn, tested the stubborn leader leaving the furlong marker, could not match strides with that one chased on late second best. XCELLENT START settled well off the pace four wide down the backside, called up five wide leaving the quarter pole, no match for top pair along willingly for the show. JUBA'S HAT TRICK tracked the pace mid-pack into the far turn, roused on off the rail into the lane, inside rival through the final sixteenth, bid evened out to the wire. NEVERPOPTHECORK outrun down the backside, by faders through the lane, no real impact. LITTLE ROO ROO pressed the top duo three wide into the far turn, weakened upper. PAYMENGOLD saved ground off the pace, never factored. JUNGLE BEAST raced well off the pace three and four wide, never threatened. SOCIAL CHIC chased the pace along the rail into the far turn, faltered from the quarter pole.
