Chart notes

REAL FIRE tracked four deep around the first turn, well placed outside the top pair in the middle stages, joined the fray three deep on the far turn, cleared in upper stretch and drew away in a strong drive. MAHINA tracked three wide early, between foes at the half-mile pole, got boxed in three wide at the quarter pole, shifted into the two path leaving the bend, rallied between rivals and got up for second. SIXTEEN ARCHES (IRE) stalked two wide then along the rail, remained inside into the far turn, eased over to the two path again around that bend, tipped three wide into the lane and took aim at the winner but lacked the needed late punch in deep stretch and lost the place honors. PASTICHE (GB) tracked two wide then moved inside, tipped out into the lane, summoned a mild rally and missed third. RUGELACH pressed the pace from outside, moved up on even terms in the middle stages, fought between rivals past the five-sixteenths pole, stayed on to upper stretch and weakened in the late stages. BIG SUMMER settled inside, waited for room on the far turn, gained an opening turning for home, tipped two wide in upper stretch, ran into traffic past the eighth pole to the sixteenth marker and was ridden out once in the clear. BIG MAMA SUE raced two wide near the back, chased inside a pair of rivals at the halfway point, trailed into the second bend, swung widest leaving the far turn and into the stretch and improved position. CAROLE LOMBARD traveled four then three wide around the clubhouse turn and dropped back off the pace, climbed along early on the backstretch, raced three deep past half-mile pole, spun five wide into the lane, moved out further and failed to menace. BELLE CHERIE showed good early foot to take control, showed the way along the inside under pressure, dueled up the backstretch, vied inside a pair of rivals past the five-sixteenths pole, gave up the lead late on the far turn and tired down the lane. NAUGHTY NADINE (GB) brushed the gate and broke out a bit, chased three deep into the first turn, went two wide into far turn, eased out and came four wide into the stretch but had little left for the drive. JAMIES INHERITANCE stalked outside a pair of rivals into the first turn, chased two then three wide on the second bend and faded.
