Chart notes

PORTRAIT OF ADDIE broke a half a beat slow and shied out behind KATERINA RISTOVA being taken briefly in hand due to pressure from SOUL SECRET and BOURBON BLANKET to her inside, settled two to three wide near the rear of the field, came under coaxing near the five-sixteenths, went eight wide into upper stretch, rallied on the outside to issue a challenge inside the final furlong, collared the leader inside the sixteenth marker and just got the nod on the wire to score. ACOUSTICAT settled tracking the front just off the inside and then along the inside coming under coaxing at the three-eighths, swung three wide into upper stretch, tipped out and rallied to take command a sixteenth from home, dug in under threat and just lost the bob on the line. KATERINA RISTOVA raced three then two wide through the first turn, tracked the leader in closest aim just off the inside, advanced nearing the far turn and pressed the issue from the seven-sixteenths knocking heads through the bend and seizing command just outside the quarter pole, swung two to three wide into upper stretch, edged away under a drive straightened away, shied out under a left handed crop two paths a furlong out, then shied in when corrected with a right handed crop and was caught a sixteenth out, ran on to preserve the show honors at the finish. MEZCALIFORNIA coaxed from the gate, showed the way in hand along the inside, came under pressure from the aforementioned foe seven-sixteenths from home and was placed to coaxing in response with five-sixteenths remaining, yielded the front and took the inside route into upper stretch, kept on under a drive to the finish. ON A SUMMER DAY four then three wide through the first turn, chased four then three wide coming under coaxing at the five-sixteenths, angled six wide into upper stretch and stayed on one paced to the end. LOTUS PETAL lunged and was bumped solidly between foes who each broke her way at the start, chased along the inside patiently handled until set down angled four wide into upper stretch, then offered no kick. IL SUO ORO five then four wide through the first turn, chased four then three wide coming under coaxing at the five-sixteenths, went seven wide into upper stretch and offered no response. SOUL SECRET got bumped at the start by BOURBON BLANKET, chased just off the inside under coaxing from the five-sixteenths, tipped three wide into upper stretch and offered no rally. BOURBON BLANKET broke out at the start bumping SOUL SECRET, got out six wide into the first turn and steadily tucked to be three wide when entering the backstretch, chased four then three wide down the backstretch and then three wide through the far turn, went five to six wide into upper stretch and made no impact. OLIVIA'S WISH broke in at the start bumping LOTUS PETAL solidly in tandem with MITOLETA, came under hustling and chased three then two wide, got coaxed along at the seven-sixteenths, swung five wide into upper stretch and tired. MITOLETA veered out at the start bumping LOTUS PETAL solidly in concert with the aforementioned foe, chased along the inside under coaxing from three furlongs out, continued in the inside route into upper stretch and folded.
