Chart notes

IN CHARGE HALO strolled to the front, was well rated in the two path while setting the pace on an easy lead, responded well when asked at the quarter-pole, drifted in under a right-handed crop inside the three-sixteenths, drifted out from a left-handed crop inside the furlong marker, was straightened by the rider while clear into the final sixteenth then given one last pop of a left-handed crop before being placed under a hand ride to the wire in victory. RIFLE MAN broke out and bumped with a foe then dropped back, went around the first turn in the two path under restraint, was reserved behind horses at the rear of the field, dropped back off while climbing some leaving the backstretch then shifted four wide, continued four wide through the far turn, came six wide into the stretch, gained outside in the final furlong and finished willingly for the place. STAR BANJO was hustled from the start, saved ground on the first turn, was well placed just off the pace, came under urging while inside on the far turn, turned into the stretch under the drop, angled out in pursuit of the winner at the sixteenth-pole and also finished willingly but just missed the place. REMEMBERMIS broke out at the start then was hustled, went four wide on the first turn, settled on the outside, was roused four then five wide on the far turn, turned into upper stretch under a drive and lacked the needed kick. TAKEN BACK broke a bit slow, went three wide on the first turn, was reserved towards the rear, raced three then four wide while asked on the far turn, turned into the stretch under a drive and lacked the needed response. ALMA DERBY was bumped at the start, went three wide while a bit keen on the first turn, tracked the pace on the outside, raced in the three path on the far turn, was given his cue at the five-sixteenths, chased into upper stretch and weakened.
