Chart notes

SEA TO AIR took control from the start, opened up considerably under brisk fractions down the backside, had a comfortable lead throughout the turn, was getting leg weary in mid- stretch but built up enough of a lead to hold safe by a diminishing margin at the wire. BENLION stalked near the rear in the early going, began to lengthen stride midway point on the turn, swung outside runners reaching for ground turning for home, switched leads a couple of times closing in through the stretch but could not reel in the frontrunning winner in time. RIVER OF BABYLON tracked the pacesetter on the rail, continued inside dueling in the chasing pack around the bend and gamely prevailed in the show battle down the lane. BET N WIN tracked on the outside three deep down the backside, inched closer to the winner three wide outside foes at the quarter pole, was in the mix of things for a share in the four path straightening out for home and ran on mildly to the wire for a minor placing in the end. MIA AND ME tracked the speed between horses through the turn, came under a ride trying to keep pace with other rivals on each side at the quarter pole and levelled off in upper stretch. ARAMOS hopped slightly at the start travelling inside to trail with another foe down the back straight, was urged inside running around the bend, could not close the gap and made little impression in the stretch run. BARTICA co-trailed on the outside in a strung out field down the backside, made no headway running outside foes through the turn and could not get involved in the drive to the wire.
