Chart notes

CLOUDS OF WHITE was deftly maneuvered towards the inner rail in the opening furlong as a pace battle when on up front, gained along the rail into the stretch, shifted out near the three sixteenths, closed sharply under left handed asks, surged outside GIFT OF GAB to take over with about seventy yards remaining and eagerly drew out. GIFT OF GAB , four deep with the pace past the half, was taken to rate soon after, advanced three wide outside a foe into the lane, moved to command a furlong out, failed to contain the winner, gave way grudgingly and saved the place. PATRIA vied two wide between foes early, forced the pace outside PRINCESS PALMER leaving the far turn then gave hard chase into the lane, dropped back a bit past the three sixteenths, shifted out inside the furlong grounds and came back on. PRINCESS PALMER broke outward, corrected and was sent up between foes to take a short lead, took pressure into the turn then cleared under some rating, came under a ride soon into the lane, ceded the lead nearing mid stretch then faded late. FORGOTTEN GIFT had speed inside foes then rated back off the leaders, gained towards the inside into the stretch, awaited room near the sixteenth pole, angled out and kept on with interest between rivals. EXPLOSIVE EXCHANGE , four to five wide with pursuit, came up empty. WATER WITCH , bumped and in tight at the break, rated off the pace, came four wide for the drive and had some belated interest. NICKY JOLENE broke a step slow, raced off the pace and off the inside, circled five wide into the stretch but failed to generate the needed run. PEACE OUT , in close at the break, was outrun. REMEMBER ME broke out a bit outward then was forced out some and bumped with a foe, chased and gave way. KAPADOKYA was sent three wide between foes early and pressed, rated back off foes into the turn, pursued and tired. YOOOU KNOW put in a dull effort.
