Chart notes

RICHY prompted the pace and made a three wide bid leaving the quarter pole to be clear by the furlong marker, then held sway late to prove best under a drive. BALTASAR was allowed to settle early, three wide entering the turn, moved out to be five wide by the quarter pole, came six wide off the turn and closed well on the outside. HUNTERS GHOST prompted the pace two wide and angled out by the furlong marker and kept on to the wire. JOHN'S PROMISE was allowed to settle early, saved ground on the turn and made a inside bid in the lane but needed more late. VOLKERT set the pace on the inside and came two wide off the turn while being headed and then faded in the final furlong. SILVER STYLE was reserved on the outside, three to four wide on the turn and had no rally. CHROMED IMPULSE chased the pace along the inside to the quarter pole, moved out and then swung out four wide leaving the turn but weakened in the drive. BIG FIG was reserved early towards the inside, saved ground on the turn and came two wide off the bend and had no rally. HAP'S VICTORY was close up early on the outside, four to five wide on the turn and stopped.
