Chart notes

SHE'S GOT A WAY tracked along the inside, two wide into the lane, waited patiently for a spot to open in upper stretch, drew alongside the top pair once in the clear past the eight pole, took over with a sixteenth remaining and drew clear under hand urging. GEM MINE stalked from inside, bid two wide into the stretch, took over outside the eighth pole but got outkicked by the winner in the final sixteenth. ALVINA (FR) tracked outside a rival early, spun four wide into the lane and finished evenly late. REAL FIRE bumped with outer rival leaving the gate, traveled inside a trio of rivals at the back early, raced along the rail then angled four wide late on the bend, mover out further in the stretch and could not summon the needed late kick in the late stages. RUFA RED KNOT took control early and showed the way up the backstretch, led clear along the rail through the turn, challenged from outside into the stretch, lost command approaching the eight pole and weakened in deep stretch. ALBAYAADER (IRE) raced four deep at the back early, went three wide into the turn then moved down to the inside to save ground but proved no menace. SWALL broke a step slow, got crowded between rivals at the back early, chased two then three wide on the turn and failed to respond when called upon. QUEENZY bumped leaving the gate, stalked outside a rival early, was two then three wide in pursuit around the bend and weakened. MAGIC LIGHT raced three deep between rivals early, trailed and steered to the inside leaving the backstretch, saved ground around the bend and was not a factor.
