Chart notes

CURVETTE up close early outside the pacesetter, drew alongside around the turn, came into the stretch on even terms, asked upper stretch and kicked clear to win going away under strong hand urging. REEM set the pace from inside, challenged around the turn, coaxed a quarter mile out, could not keep up with the winner in the final furlong but safely held the place. SHELL SHOCK chased off the rail then between rivals, bumped with RIVER GIRL past the half-mile pole, went three wide around the bend and kept on while unable to threaten the top pair. SHARAPOVA came away a bit slow, pulled some and steadied early, traveled along the inside then a bit off the rail into the stretch and weakened. RIVER GIRL chased outside a rival then three deep, bumped with SHELL SHOCK past the half-mile marker, came three to four wide into the stretch and weakened.
