Chart notes

FEV ROVER (IRE) was patiently handled galloping along four deep down the backstretch trailing the pack into the turn, was in no rush in last watching the race unfold while in range of the field with three furlongs to go, continued to be unhurried sitting behind a wall of runners in upper stretch, a path opened up five wide with three sixteenths to go, quickly burst through when asked to get the lead and drew away comfortably nearing the wire. MOIRA was squeezed between runners on the start to trail in the early going, was then hustled down the backside to get early position sitting behind the leaders with five eighths to go, shifted off the tiring pacesetter inside three furlongs from home, had clear run splitting foes at the furlong pole and finished well to best the rest at the wire. MILLIE GIRL tracked the top two between horses in the second flight, was urged on the turn keeping up with other rivals, fought on stubbornly in the six path when surrounded by runners never giving in and finished up late to capture third money in a gritty stretch effort. DEVIL'S BIT broke inwards to begin, settled three deep between foes near the rear at the half, started to rally around horses three wide at the three eighths marker, bid for the front five wide straightening out for the drive and stalled with an eighth remaining to hold for a minor role. EMINENT VICTOR was unhurried down the backstretch shifting inwards to the rail with three quarters remaining, stalked in the third flight inside through the turn while on hold behind horses, was coaxed for more run shifting out to be six wide entering the lane and was one paced in deep stretch. SCOTISH STAR (ARG) broke out on the start, pressured the frontrunner outside through the turn, had a slim lead between foes three eighths from the finish, was headed outside by the closers two furlongs from home, battled on for another furlong and faded on the fence in the final sixteenth. PURRFECT was situated near the back of the pack four deep outside runners at the half, could not make any gain outside challengers running through the turn, angled out widest in the seven path for the stretch drive and could no be a presence running to the wire. SWEET ENOUGH (GB) sat outside watching the contesting duo into the turn, began to inch closer to the front runners at the three furlong marker, contested for the lead four wide with runners on either side two furlongs from the wire, shortened stride in mid stretch and tired in the late stages. SISTER LOU ANN led the field on the rail down the backside, narrowly held on to the lead in the early part of the turn, was collared outside three furlongs from the wire, had nothing left to give inside at the top of the lane and retreated in mid stretch.
