Chart notes

HOT MIDDLES pressed the pace inside, bid on the turn, was steadied near the quarter pole while in tight quarters, dueled inside through the stretch and was clear late under a steady drive. THE KID PATAKY hopped at the start, broke sharply, led between rivals, dueled through the stretch but proved second best. BITS OF CANDY was bumped at the start, raced inside, angled to the four path in early stretch but had no closing bid. CITY PRAYERS raced in the four path with no late bid. EKATI FLATTER hopped at the start, stalked the pace in the three path, bid on the turn, vied three wide and gave way in early stretch.
