Chart notes

GRAND BELLA got fractious in the gate, stalked the leaders in the three path, was cued midway around the turn, took aim in the four path at the top of the lane, and drew clear in the final furlong. LADY SUMMER pressed the inner duo, bid under coaxing in the three path midway around the turn, led at the top of the lane, and ran on but got out-kicked by the winner to be second best. SHEZAWILDONE raced off the pace, was coaxed along in the three path around the turn, swung lout to the six path at the top of the stretch, and kept on for show. WINNING DEFENSE dueled for the lead between foes in the two path, was roused while tipping to the rail passing the quarter, fought on in upper stretch, then yielded in the final furlong. GLACIA GLAZE trailed early, merged to the rail going into the turn, was ridden around the turn, but made no impact. NIFTY'S SPIRIT tracked inside, was nibbled along in the two path around the turn, but weakened between rivals in the stretch. EMBER CROWN vied for the lead along the rail, was cued midway around the turn, had to steady turning into the stretch, then yielded.
