Chart notes

GETTING CLOSER chased the early pace while three wide then was urged to contend at the 3/8 pole and sustained that bid into the stretch, opening up late. C C COMMANDER stumbled at the start then settled with a rail trip into the turn before angling off the rail at the top of the stretch and split horses, rallying late for place. CHRISTMAS JONES got away alertly and set the early pace then was headed into the stretch but ran on late, holding on for show. BUTLER ROAD was fractious in the gate the rated in the second flight early before angling four wide into the stretch and made a bid with a mild rally late. SIN BOLDLY raced close up early then waited along the rail through the turn before splitting horses to make a bid into the stretch but was outfinished. PASORIA was void of early speed before altering six wide into the stretch and was asked but didn't have enough late. CRAB MENTALITY rated in the middle of the pack and chased the early pace but faded into the stretch. IT'S NANCYTIME NOW stumbled at the start then rated in the second flight early before drifting eight wide into the stretch but came up empty late.
