Chart notes

BRIGHTWORK established forward position on the outside, had WAYS AND MEANS clip her heels inside the three-quarter pole, stalked the leader on the outside, engaged the leading duo in the four path on the turn, was put to a drive into upper stretch then came under a left-handed crop, battled inside of the runner-up to the finish and prevailed under strong urging. WAYS AND MEANS broke a bit awkwardly and was off a half-step slow, raced in tight quarters while caught between foes early, was taken up while lugging out over the heels of BRIGHTWORK inside the three-quarter pole then clipped that foes heels, was rated on the outside, moved closer late on the backstretch, made a bid in the five path on the turn, turned into upper stretch on even terms for the lead, was put to a right-handed crop outside the furlong marker, dueled outside of the winner, switched to a left-handed crop near the sixteenth-pole and missed while well clear for the place. WONDER RIDE was reserved off the pace, traveled three wide on the turn, was roused outside the quarter-pole, chased into upper stretch and weakened while able to get the show. ALYS BEACH dropped back under urging, fell well behind after going five furlongs, went around the turn in the two path, moved out near the furlong marker then drifted further out and improved for the show. CLOSING ACT was eased back off the pace near the three-quarter pole then settled, raced between horses in the two path on the turn, dropped back near the five-sixteenths, spun three wide into the stretch and came up empty. SUGAR HI went to the front, showed the way under some pressure, vied inside on the turn, was urged along under heavy pressure passing the five-sixteenths, dropped back into upper stretch and gave way. LADY MOSCATO pressed the pace on the inside, was eased back near the five-eighths pole, saved ground on the turn, was given her cue near the five-sixteenths, turned into the stretch in the two path and capitulated. LEMORIAN pressed the pace on the outside, drew even with the leader in the three path on the turn, dropped back under urging outside the quarter-pole and faded. MIZ SENSE acted-up just as the gate opened, became very unruly while thrashing around in the stall then unseated rider and was declared a non-starter. FOLLOWING A STEWARDS' INQUIRY INTO THE START, MIZ SENSE WAS DECLARED A NON-STARTER
