Chart notes

FIREWATER TU showed good early speed from the outside and held gamely in the drive to be clear under strong pressure. HAND GESTURE was allowed to settle to the middle of the pack, moved up along the inside and got for the place position late. JUST JEREMY stalked the pace, raced four wide nearing the three sixteenths pole and had no final winning bid. RULING FRONT broke to the outside, raced in the three path in the lane and weakened late. SHINBORO was bumped at the break, settled off the early pace, raced four wide into the upper stretch and had not enough. CUPIDS DREAM stalked the pace from the outside, raced four wide into the upper stretch and racing evenly late. SONGTELLER raced up close early, raced near the inside and had no response. BOLT FROM THE BLUE was unhurried early, raced four wide near the quarter pole and had no late rally. WONDER WATER was slow early and never threatened. IRISH CHALICE was squeezed back at the break and never was a factor.
