Chart notes

GAV'S DREAM GIRL bobbled at the break getting away last but only conceding two lengths to the front before settling into stride, chased along the inside advancing to take command at the three-eighths, took the inside route into upper stretch, went clear under a drive and was geared down inside the final sixteenth. GHOSTLY GIRL coaxed from the gate, showed the way in hand just off the inside, came under coaxing and yielded the front with three furlongs to go, swung three wide into upper stretch, proved no match for the top one while running on clear of the rest to be along second best. TRY IT AGAIN coaxed from the start, chased just off the inside and then along the inside coming under coaxing at the three-eighths, spun just off the inside into upper stretch and improved position to procure the show honors. FIRST CLASS CAT chased five paths off the inside down the backstretch and then three wide through the turn coming under coaxing at the three-eighths, swung four to five wide into upper stretch and tired. MAGGIE chased four then three wide under coaxing from three furlongs out, angled five wide into upper stretch, tired. TAKE TIME TO DREAM chased three then two wide coming under coaxing at the three-eighths, swung three wide for home, faltered in the stretch.
