Chart notes

MESSIDOR (IRE) stumbled at the start, recovered to save ground at the rear of the compact albeit spread out field early on, remained patiently handled and took closer order on the front in tandem with her main rivals into the far turn, came under coaxing near the quarter pole and angled out four wide into upper stretch, offered up a good kick to close stoutly on the outside seizing command seventy yards from home, then edged away to the finish under a light hand drive. EVVIE JETS two to three wide in pursuit, came under coaxing at the five-sixteenths, angled five then four wide into upper stretch straightened away, came in under a right handed stick a furlong out placing a pair of rivals in tight just in behind, seized command just inside that station, got collared seventy yards from home while running on with good energy to the finish. PHANTOM VISION established the front and showed the way in hand along the inside shaking away into the first turn to open up a commanding lead, settled into a comfortable rhythm and steadily had the field take closer order remaining unhurried until TASS latched on nearing the quarter pole, got put to coaxing at that juncture, took the inside route into upper stretch, dug in under threat and was collared just inside the eighth pole, kept on to preserve the show honors. HIGH OPINION tracked the pace along the inside, came under coaxing at the five-sixteenths, spun three then two wide into upper stretch, dug in under a drive and got nudged by AMALFI PRINCESS and paused as a pair of lanes tightened up when EVVIE JETS came inwards at the eighth pole, then improved position to miss for the show honors. AMALFI PRINCESS two to three wide in pursuit, came under light coaxing at the three-eighths, swung four then three wide into upper stretch under a drive, dug in and had EVVIE JETS come inwards and had her lane tighten up nudging HIGH OPINION to her inside at the eighth pole, then weakened in the late stages. TASS broke a beat slow, then ranged up to be forwardly placed in closest aim of the leader through the first turn, tracked the spurting away leader just off the inside, began to advance on that rival three furlongs from home and came under coaxing at the five-sixteenths when latching on the front, spun three then two wide into upper stretch and weakened in the late going.
