Chart notes

SET PIECE (GB) rated well off of the pace along the inside while staying a bit off of the inner railing around both turns, patiently awaited racing room entering the lane before swinging four wide for clear sailing at the three sixteenths pole, rallied to bid for the lead outside of a pair of rivals a sixteenth out, and cleared before being wrapped up at the wire. SNAPPER SINCLAIR tracked from midpack in the two path, decisively advanced to a three wide stalking position approaching the half mile pole, sustained that spot around the far turn, chased GRAY'S FABLE through upper stretch as that foe kicked clear, grinded away at that foes margin in midstretch as SET PIECE (GB) rallied along side, bid for the lead simultaneously with that foe a sixteenth from home, but was outkicked, before achieving place at the wire. GRAY'S FABLE set the pace inside of SAYYAF early on, tugged keenly around the first turn to maintain an advantage, settled approaching the half mile pole, inched clear of that rival entering the lane, held that clear margin through midstretch, but met a pair of bids inside the final furlong, was surpassed a sixteenth out, then got nailed on the wire for place. SUGOI stalked along the inside, but chased evenly through the lane, and failed to produce a bid. LOGICAL MYTH lied off of the pace along the inside, shifted to the three path around the far turn while attempting to find racing room inside of SPECTACULAR GEM, did so by shifted four wide turning for home, but lacked the needed kick, and failed to factor. CAPTIVATING MOON trailed around both turns, and passed tired foes without menacing. SAYYAAF prompted the pace setter from the outside while pulling keenly around the first turn, sustained pressing position around the far turn, but gave way between horses in upper stretch. SPECTACULAR GEM lied off of the pace two wide, advanced outside of foes to a four wide tracking position down the backstretch, but tired while being floated five wide entering the lane, and weakened thereafter.
