Chart notes

REGAL INTENT was quickly clear to dictate terms shifting nearer inside, faced mild pressure leaving the backstretch, was once again clear turning for home while coming out a bit, drifted out a bit further but held under steady handling. PRINCE OF THIEVES settled off the pace under light rating, went three to four wide on the turn, came out eight wide in upper stretch for room, was put to stout urging and gained steadily but too late. POINT TO THE STARS shifted in late up the backstretch, saved ground on the early part of the turn coming out three wide about the five-sixteenths, angled out further to be six deep past the quarter pole looking for room, kicked on well but needed more. JUSTIN'S WAY stalked four wide, was in a bit tight near the half and lost some ground, came out widest to be eleven deep in upper stretch and ran on with moderate late interest. GRAND ALLIANCE angled in early settling well back, moved nearer the rail late on the turn, ran on to improve position. RACING IN THE RAIN brushed with a rival lightly at the start, chased the leader from off the inside in the two to three path, angled seven deep turning for home, went evenly in the lane. EXCEED brushed with a foe at the start, was in tight racing in the two path about the five- and one-half, dropped back a bit, shifted nine wide in upper stretch and ran on. DOCTOR WU brushed with a foe at the break, raced off the leaders early, came out a few paths from the fence late on the turn, ran on mildly. PASSTHEPUDDINPLEAZ brushed with a foe at the start, chased early then edged closer to press three wide leaving the backstretch, came up empty. ADELAIDE COURT stalked the pace four wide, faded. BATTLE OF YORKTOWN raced mid-division five wide into the turn, floated ten wide into the stretch, was never a threat. HALLANVAARA was a bit awkward into stride and never near enough to threaten. ROMANTIC GAMBLE raced mid-pack three wide into the turn, tired.
