Chart notes

PRETTY MISCHIEVOUS three wide in pursuit from near the rear of the field, came under coaxing at the three-eighths, angled six wide into upper stretch, offered up a mild kick willingly through the stretch to the finish kept to task. CLEARLY UNHINGED chased along the inside, went to tip to the two path near the nine-sixteenths and clipped the back of JERSEY PEARL bobbling at that station, chased just off the inside through the turn coming under coaxing near the quarter pole, went five wide into upper stretch, ran on to the finish. MUNNYS GOLD raced three wide in closest aim of the leader at times latching on to press the pace, came under coaxing near the quarter pole, angled four wide into upper stretch, offered up a bid a furlong out, kept on under a drive to the wire. DORTH VADER chased four wide coming under encouragement three furlongs from home, angled five wide into upper stretch, kept on to the finish. JERSEY PEARL chased along the inside, got clipped behind when CLEARLY UNHINGED tipped to the two path from in behind her at the nine-sixteenths, came under coaxing at the three-eighths, continued inside into upper stretch and floated to the two path straightened away, then weakened in the stretch. TAPPIN JOSIE two to three wide in pursuit, came under coaxing at the seven-sixteenths, continued two to three wide into upper stretch, tired. MAPLE LEAF MEL established the front from the get go and showed the way in hand three then two wide, remained patiently handled through the turn under some pressure from MUNNYS GOLD to the outside, continued two to three wide into upper stretch and was roused straightened away, edged clear to the eighth pole, remained clear inside the final sixteenth and was geared down inside the final seventy yards when suffering a catastrophic injury to the right front leg, fell in the shadow of the wire and was subsequently euthanized on track. There was a general Stewards' Inquiry into the stretch run before the race was declared official.
