Chart notes

WAR LIKE GODDESS was a bit reluctant to load, settled off the early going racing in hand, asked through the far turn, raced four deep into the upper stretch and finished strongly to edge up under steady encouragement. CHOP CHOP prompt the early leader from the outside, led into the upper stretch, dug in near the eighth pole and kept on gamely to the wire. VERGARA tracked the early pace setters just off the inside, moved up three wide into the upper stretch to take aim, split rivals near the eighth, shifted in a bit and finished gamely to the wire. ATOMIC BLONDE (GER) settled off the early pace setters, ridden along near the quarter pole from the inside, angled out into the upper stretch to race five wide and closed in mildly. LA MEHANA (FR) stumbled at the break, rated under a firm hold near the rail and weakened through the drive. ALPHA BELLA showed good early foot to control the early pace and weakened the final eighth of a mile.
