Chart notes

VINSANITY bobbled at the break under coaxing, chased just off the inside and then along the inside, took the inside route into upper stretch, tipped to the two path straightened away, dug in under a drive rallying to seize command just inside the final seventy yards, then dug in over a late closing pair of rivals. KING COVEE got brushed at the start by JAVA BUZZ breaking inwards, chased just off the inside under a ride from the five-sixteenths, angled five to six wide into upper stretch, offered up a good finish to get up for the place honors on the wire. I SEE YOU LOOKIN chased just off the inside and then along the inside under encouragement from the five-sixteenths, spun just off the inside into upper stretch, closed well to procure the show honors. MY LIFE STORY three then two wide in pursuit, got coaxed along from the five-sixteenths, angled four to five wide into upper stretch, offered up a mild kick. MUSICAL MAESTRO chased along the inside under coaxing from the five-sixteenths, cornered just off the inside into upper stretch, offered up a mild bid. JAVA BUZZ broke in a step at the start brushing KING COVEE, spurted clear on the pace along the inside widening away through the turn, cut the corner roused into upper stretch, dug in clear to the eighth pole but under growing threat to the outside, got caught just inside seventy yards to the finish and weakened in the late stages. TYPHOON FURY four then three wide in pursuit, came under coaxing at the five-sixteenths, swung three wide into upper stretch, offered up a bid but made no headway through the final furlong. COOL HAND RICH got bumped at the start by YOUR MISSION, chased inside briefly and then just off the inside under a ride with five-sixteenths to go, continued in the two path into upper stretch and weakened in the drive. YOUR MISSION broke out a step at the start bumping COOL HAND LUKE, chased along the inside under urging from three furlongs out, angled five to six wide into upper stretch, made no impact. TRANSACTIONAL (GB) coaxed from the gate, chased three then two wide ridden along with five-sixteenths remaining, went two to three wide at the top of the stretch and tired.
