Chart notes

EARLS ROCK (IRE) unhurried in the early going, advanced two wide then angled to the rail around the turn, rallied between runners at the eighth pole, fought with BEER CAN MAN in the final furlong and prevailed. BEER CAN MAN stalked off the rail then outside a rival, took the turn three to four wide, bid in upper stretch and challenged three deep at the eighth pole then outside of EARLS ROCK through the final furlong and could not summon the needed final kick. MAC DADDY TOO pressed the pace from inside, cleared rival around the turn and led into the stretch, was overtaken at the eighth pole and kept on to hold the show. HARLAN ESTATE traveled near the back of the pack, raced along the inside then two wide around the turn, came out in upper stretch and showed a mild response to earn a minor award. SWORD ZORRO (IRE) off a bit slow to begin, trailed in the early going, went two wide around the bend then came out and passed tired rivals. COMMANDER KHAI chased off the inside then went between rivals, traveled two wide then moved to the rail on the turn, moved back out into the two path leaving the bend and weakened. WESTON was in range early from inside, steadied along the rail near the quarter pole and could not rally in the drive. GATOR SHINING off a bit slow to begin, raced along the inside then two wide into the stretch, angled out in the lane and never threatened. EXHALTING showed early speed and set the pace outside a rival, dueled into the turn, lost contact around the bend and gave way. FOLLOWING AN INQUIRY, THE STEWARDS RULED THAT THE VIDEO WAS INCONCLUSIVE AS TO WHETER THERE WAS ANY INTERFERENCE BETWEEN EARLS ROCK AND WESTON AROUND THE TURN AND THERE WOULD BE NO CHANGE.
