Chart notes

MOMA broke a step slow then had her path taken, spotted the front a few lengths, moved in down the initial straightaway, rounded the first turn in the two path, settled inside on the backstretch, glided along the hedge while behind the runner-up on the far turn, was roused in the two path when the aforementioned foe vacated the area at the quarter-pole, rallied passing the three-sixteenths, displayed impressive acceleration and closed fast to get the lead between foes inside the furlong marker then moved clear under good handling in a nice debut. ROOT CAUSE dropped back while taken in hand early, steadied along the hedge around the first turn, was reserved while saving ground, drafted along the hedge on the far turn, was roused while swinging four wide into the stretch, chased outside into the final furlong and finished with good courage for the place. TOWHEAD bumped with a rival at the start, was coaxed to establish early position, raced in the three path around the first turn, stalked the pace on the outside, vied in the two to three path around the far turn, took the lead under a drive in upper stretch, lost the advantage inside the furlong marker and weakened but held the show. BEAUTIFULNAVIGATOR (IRE) broke out then was corrected by the rider, raced inside to the two path under restraint around the opening bend, was well placed just off the pace, saved ground for most of the far turn then shifted to the two path, was roused three wide into the stretch, chased while still on her inside lead in the stretch and tired. FOREVER DIXIE steadied in the three path on the first turn, was reserved near the middle of the field, went three wide under urging on the far turn, steadied five wide into the stretch, drifted in around the furlong marker and failed to threaten. SHESJUSTANICEGIRL was hustled from the gate, went four wide on the first turn, settled off the pace, was roused two to three wide on the far turn then driven four wide into the stretch and lacked the needed response. CONSEILLANTE broke out and bumped with a foe, went to the front, tugging very hard under restraint while moving in early, showed the way on the inside, was asked before the quarter-pole, lost the advantage in upper stretch, dropped back into the final furlong and gave way. SPUNK bumped with foes on both sides at the start, was carried in early, steadied off heels along the hedge near the three-quarter pole, settled towards the back, went around the far turn in the two path, shifted three wide into the stretch and failed to rally. COEXIST broke out and bumped with a foe then had her path taken, dropped well behind early, went three wide around the first turn, lagged at the back, traveled in the two path on the far turn and showed little. ASTRILA was very rank under tight restraint on the initial straightaway, swerved out off heels around the seven-eighths then was taken up some into the first turn, raced five wide around that bend, was reserved on the outside, went three to four wide on the far turn, swerved six wide into the stretch and was no factor.
