Chart notes

PLEASE FOCUS set the pace with rival applying pressure to the outside, cleared at the quarter pole, continued clear to midstretch, then held gamely over closing rivals from both sides. WESTWARD LOOK broke a step slow, forwardly placed early three deep, chased three wide into the lane, challenged in the final sixteenth but could not get by. BARSABAS bumped with inner rival early, trailed on the inside to the lane, angled out in upper stretch, steered inside the top pair in the final sixteenth, surged but was too late. SEISMIC SPIRIT (IRE) stalked between foes then two wide, got put in a bit tight at the five-sixteenths pole, tipped out at the top of the stretch, chased behind WESTWARD LOOK then finished willingly outside that rival to pick up a minor piece four deep on the line. SQUARE CAT got bumped shortly after the start, raced off the pace then ran up on heels early, took the turn three then four wide, tipped widest in the drive and kept on while needing to find more late. INCH stalked four deep into the turn, remained wide into the lane and faltered in the late stages. LAW ABIDING pressed the pace from outside, lost touch around the turn and chased two wide into the lane and weakened. THUNDERHEART stalked the pace from inside, cut the corner into the lane and weakened.
