Chart notes

HIGHTAIL FOX rated in the second flight early then made a steady advance while five wide and sustained the bid through the stretch, drawing off late. EILEEN'S DESPERADO moved up and set the early pace with a rail trip then raced all out into the stretch and held on for place. JACKSON'S ROAR rated in the middle of the pack then waited through the turn before splitting horses into the stretch and rallied under strong left handed urging. ADMIRAL NELSON got away alertly and stalked the early pace then drifted seven wide at the 1/4 pole before giving way late in the stretch. GAME PERFORMER settled early with a four wide trip then angled six wide into the stretch and closed belatedly. IPLEDTHEFIFTH stumbled at the start then was allowed to settle before being urged while seven wide through the turn and showed some run late. GOOD DIRECTIONS was void of early speed and saved ground then angled four wide into the stretch and was asked but made no rally. ASK ARTHUR stumbled at the start then rated in the middle of the pack before being urged nearing the 3/8 pole but tired. OL' NELSON raced close up and chased the early pace before dropping back into the turn and came up empty in the stretch.
