Chart notes

ECOLOGIST was unhurried in the early going, raced three wide along the first turn, improved position while outside of rivals along the backstretch run, was roused four wide along the far turn, chased the pace setter to the furlong grounds, closed with a rush in deep stretch, came within aim of OH GREAT in the final strides and surged at the finish to prevail. OH GREAT (IRE) broke alertly and dictated terms in the early stages, set a pressured pace along the first turn then shook free into the backstretch run, set decent fractions to the half-mile marker, showed the way while saving ground into the far turn, drew to a clear lead at mid-stretch, kept to task while under firm urging to deep stretch, was confronted by ECOLOGIST in the final strides and was nailed on the line for the win, while besting the rest. SUNNY SPOT saved ground in the early going while well placed, stalked the decent pace along the backstretch run, advanced two wide on the second turn, could not match strides with OH GREAT in upper stretch, made a mild late gain in the final furlong, could not impact the top pair in deep stretch and held for third. COOLCROSS settled off of the decent early pace while saving ground, was well placed through the backstretch run, saved ground into the second turn, was outrun heading to mid-stretch, offered a mild late rally in the final stages and just missed for third. WELLSWORT (IRE) settled off of the early pace while not far back, maintained position through the backstretch run, lost ground three wide on the far turn, was outrun in upper stretch, re-rallied inside of the furlong marker and was gaining in the late stages. QUE SERA SIR RALPH was forwardly placed in the early running, stalked the pace three wide on the first turn, maintained his position through the backstretch run, raced three wide into the second turn, was outrun in upper stretch and gave way in the drive. EXCLUSIVE SPEAKER was prominent in the early stages, raced close to the decent pace through the backstretch run, dropped back leaving the half-mile marker, tired along the second turn and trailed through the stretch.
