Chart notes

TOWNER TOO stalked the top pair from the four path, bid in the five path entering the lane, drove clear coming to midstretch then held from outer pursuers late. SHAN tracked from the five to four path, tipped out to the six path in upper stretch, rallied along with outer rivals in the final furlong but needed more to reel in the leader and saved place. EXECUTIVE CHEF laid off of the pace in the six to five path into the turn, fanned to the seven path into the lane yet rallied to miss place between horses at the wire. MENA settled in the four path, swung eight wide in upper stretch and rallied to miss show. TAGLIATELLE tracked from the three to four path into the lane then ran on between horses. BOURBON'S FAULT stalked from the two path, chased in the three path and between horses into the final furlong but lacked a bid. MITTY'S GRIDDY pressed the leader from the three path, vied between horses at the five sixteenths pole, led in the four path into the lane but got outkicked by an outer bidder shortly after then yielded in the final furlong. SHADOW COAST set the pace near the inside, got headed while inside of a pair of rivals passing the five sixteenths pole and gave way. SAMBALOVER lacked speed near the inside, saved ground to no avail. TUSKEGEE AIRMEN trailed in the two path and got outrun.
