Chart notes

SEIZE THE GREY broke in at the start and was corrected, established the front shortly after and dueled with LAMBO to his outside, shook briefly away from that rival near the turn before being engaged in head to head combat once more with seven-sixteenths to go, came under coaxing near the quarter pole and swung three wide into upper stretch, edged away under a drive to the eighth pole, dug in holding well and clear to the finish kept to task. DORNOCH got bumped after the start in a chain of bumps begun by DRUM ROLL PLEASE, crossed to the inside forcing a pair of rivals in HOULTON and DIVINE EMPIRE to steady when shying from the tuck, advanced inside to be just off the duel, came under coaxing at the five-sixteenths, took the inside route into upper stretch and dug in under a drive running on to chase the winner home willingly to secure the place honors. GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE crossed to the two path soon after the start and chased just off the inside coming under coaxing three furlongs from home, angled four wide into upper stretch and offered up a mild kick. PRIVATE DESIRE lunged at the break, then got bumped by DRUM ROLL PLEASE into DORNOCH who in turn bumped HOULTON, chased just off the inside just off the duel up front, came under coaxing at the five-sixteenths, angled six wide into upper stretch and kept on to the finish. LAMBO dueled three wide with SEIZE THE GREY to his inside, came under coaxing at the three-eighths, angled four wide into upper stretch and weakened in the late stages. DRUM ROLL PLEASE broke in at the start bumping PRIVATE DESIRE and commencing a chain of bumps in through to HOULTON, chased inside briefly before tipping two then three wide coming under coaxing at the seven-sixteenths, spun just off the inside into upper stretch and offered no rally. HOULTON got bumped at the start in a chain of bumps, raced just off the inside, then got forced to steady when shying in tandem with DIVINE EMPIRE as DORNOCH tucked in front from the outside, tipped out to chase three to four wide from that point on, came under coaxing at the seven-sixteenths, went eight wide into upper stretch and tired. DIVINE EMPIRE shied in at the start from SEIZE THE GREY breaking inwards from the outside and got corrected, raced along the rail early on and shied skipping along the fence when DORNOCH tucked in front and was steadied at the three-quarter pole, chased along the inside down the backstretch and then just off the inside through the turn, went three to four wide for home and made no impact. SKIP THE LINE four wide in pursuit, came under coaxing at the three-eighths, swung four to five wide into upper stretch and tired. DEVIL'S PLAYGROUND chased four then three wide under coaxing from midway on the turn, went seven wide into upper stretch, tired.
