Chart notes

GENERAL JIM broke out at the start, went three then two wide around the opening bend, settled outside but with the benefit of cover, came under urging outside the three-eighths, was urged three wide around the final turn then driven four wide into the stretch, took the lead while carried out inside the three-sixteenths, drifted in inside the furlong marker, dueled with the runner-up in the final sixteenth and narrowly prevailed under strong urging. FLY RIGHT was bumped at the start, pulled hard on the bit under restraint while inside through the first turn, was rated in a good position just off the pace, drafted along the hedge on the far turn, was given his cue in the two path into the stretch, accelerated to make a bid inside the three-sixteenths, battled with two foes until inside the furlong marker, dueled with the winner in the final sixteenth and just missed while able to get the place. SCRAMBLE tucked in down the opening straightaway, raced inside early on the first turn then steadied some while swerving out keenly over heels, tossed his head shortly thereafter, remained keen early on the backstretch, was reserved towards the rear, saved ground on the far turn, swung five wide while roused at the quarter-pole, remained on her inside lead under urging while briefly behind a drifting duo in upper stretch, found clear space in front around the furlong marker then swapped to the proper lead and finished with good energy but was too late while able to garner the show. ARI GOLD showed early speed between foes then was taken back off the pace before the first turn, went around that bend in the two path, tracked outside in hand down the backstretch, raced three wide on the far turn, was asked near the five-sixteenths, took the lead while asked for her best around the three-sixteenths then drifted out, lost the advantage to the winner outside the eighth-pole, fought between foes until inside the furlong marker, switched back to her inside lead while dropping back coming to the sixteenth-pole and weakened. PLEASE BABY hit the gate at the break, started the first turn in the two path then was carried out to the three path by SCRAMBLE, settled at the rear down the backstretch, was roused three wide on the far turn, came five wide into the stretch and failed to threaten. CLASSIC CREATION displayed speed from the outside post, rounded the first turn in the three path, showed the way down the backstretch, vied inside on the far turn, was asked outside the quarter-pole, lost the advantage around the three-sixteenths and gave way. GOOD NEWS ROCKET saved ground around the opening bend, settled off the hedge, was urged along in the two path around the far turn and failed to rally. READ ON broke out and bumped with a rival then was pulled off that foe by the rider, showed speed while a bit green on the inside, moved out entering the backstretch then stalked on the outside, came under coaxing around the seven-sixteenths, chased in the two path on the far turn and capitulated. IMPECCABILITY was slow into stride, dropped well behind while traveling awkwardly and was pulled up but walked off.
