Chart notes

J P HELLISH was content to track the loose pacesetter down the backside, started to reel in the frontrunner by the quarter pole, loomed the only threat outside at the top of the lane and under a vigorous ride got up in the final strides. STEAK AND CHEESE took command from the onset, set a honest pace uncontested down the backside, battled determinedly inside through the stretch with the winner and just missed holding for the win in the last few jumps before the wire with a solid frontrunning effort. LAC MACAZA stalked on the rail in the beginning, improved starting a run on the fence into the far turn, chased the front pair home down the stretch and held on to be a non threaten third at the finish line. CLEAR DESTINATION trailed the field into the first turn, continued seeing the pack down the back straight, rallied up the fence with three eighths to go, made a strong move inside at the quarter pole and finished up with intent almost closing in for third money late. SIMCOE stalked three wide outside horses around the first turn, made no progress outside horses down the back straight, offered a mild turn of foot four wide around rivals in the final bend and was one paced in the stretch. MIGHTY SEA stalked near the back outside in the early stages, was asked with three furlongs to go, could not accelerate with others making a move around the far bend and was not involved in the stretch running. RELOAD'S REBEL tracked the top pair inside on the first turn, continued to watch the front two down the back straight, was roused midway on the far turn, offered no response and tired in upper stretch. ROSEBUD'S HOPE travelled in mid-pack down the backstretch, was hard ridden three furlongs from the wire, offered little run and had nothing to give in the stretch drive.
