Chart notes
EMPIRE'S BEST broke slightly inwards and bumped foe, then moved along the rail to establish the pace down the backstretch, remained clear throughout the far turn and was kept to task down the lane unbothered. HARD TO COME BY saved ground in the early stages while racing from the two path mid pack, came under vigorous urging heading into the far turn to gain second position, rallied bid in the upper stretch but could not catch the leader. CROW'S NEST was allowed to settle towards the back while two wide down the backstretch, then rallied bid while three to four wide on the far turn and needed more in the stretch and held the show position. BENZODINI raced along the rail mid pack and failed to rally. TOP COP broke outwardly and bumped foe and failed to menace. SONNY BOB was bumped from both sides at the start and was no factor. NORTHWIND was away well to track the leader from the two path in the early furlongs, then faded on the far turn and did not rally in the stretch.
