Chart notes

SOHANA vied for the lead on the inside, shook clear on the turn, then dug in gamely to win the head bob late to prove best under a drive. MEL'S BABY SISTER was bumped at the start, then was keen three wide, dropped to the inside and steadied by the three eighths, tipped out two wide for aim to make bid on the front runner, made that bid on her left lead between rivals in the furlong grounds and just missed losing the head bob. PRINCESS VINO prompted the pace and made a three wide bid off the turn but was outfinished while saving the show award. CITY BLOCKS bobbled at the start, then bumped a rival while recovering, settled on the inside and eased off the inside on the turn to be three wide nearing the quarter pole, swung out five wide leaving the turn and rallied well. TROUBLED LUCK stalked the early pace on the outside and was four wide on the turn but faded in the drive. LUCKY AND GORGEOUS was reserved on the inside and failed to menace. ZHEN LOU vied for the early lead in between rivals and faltered. CAROL T was reserved early two wide and never threatened.
