Chart notes

RUNAMILEINMYSHOES stepped to the front and showed the way along the inside, remained clear to the top of the stretch, roused and flagged with the right hand in the lane and stayed clear under urging to the line. ETERNAL REIGN (IRE) tracked two wide, raced out of range into the far turn, drew closer between rivals around the bend, got bumped with WORD PLAY (GB) in upper stretch and finished willingly for second. WORD PLAY (GB) stalked along the rail, was closest in pursuit with a quarter mile remaining, tipped at the top of the lane, bumped with ETERNAL REIGN (IRE) shortly after and could not produce a bid. NEEDLEPOINT (IRE) got crowded between rivals shortly after the start, began to pull and steadied between rivals into the first turn, continued to pull around the bend, was ridden along two wide then along the rail on the second bend and lacked a rally. DEFIANCE brushed leaving the gate, reserved in the three path, moved inside on the backstretch, eased two then three wide around the far turn, tipped out at the top of the lane and improved position. LOVIN' ON THE RUN traveled along the inside off the pace, coaxed along the rail on the far turn, chased two wide leaving the bend, lugged out in upper stretch and failed to respond. CORNELIA FORT settled outside a pair of rivals early, chased two wide on the far turn, moved out in the drive and failed to menace. DELUSIVELY brushed outer rival leaving the gate, lagged behind on the inside and was never a factor. VALKYRIAN (IRE) was closest in pursuit of the pacesetter to the far turn, chased two then three wide around the bend and faded. THERE WAS A STEWARDS' INQUIRY INVOLVING THE STRETCH RUN BETWEEN ETERNAL REIGN (IRE) AND WORD PLAY (GB). FOLLOWING A REVIEW, THE STEWARDS RULED THAT BOTH HORSES CONTRIBUTED TO THE INCIDENT AND THEREFORE NO ACTION WOULD BE TAKEN.
