Chart notes

MAX COLLECTOR broke sharply and went to the front, led the field by about a length through the turn, then responded to handling and urging in the stretch and won well clear. ATLANTIC STORM was hard to load, ducked out at the start, then overcorrected to the inside, steadied, then gradually advanced to be up with the pacesetters on the turn, continued to gain through the turn, and finished up well to gain second while no threat to the winner. THAT'S APRIORITY got bumped from the inside at the break then was forced inward by the chain reaction from the outer posts, became rank and pressed MAX COLLECTOR through the turn and into the stretch, could not match strides with that one in the stretch but kept trying and managed to hold third. ABOUT THE BUSINESS chased three wide, steadied and lost some ground late on the turn, then game back and finished willingly but could not make up the lost ground. LEOBOBANNA got bumped and carried inward about three paths by ABOUT THE BUSINESS, then was outrun through the early stages, saved ground through the turn, and finished evenly. EMBRACE MY HEART veered out at the start, was slow into stride, and never threatened. SWAMP POP prompted the pace four wide to the turn, then struggled to keep up and was outrun in the stretch. HIT SQUAD broke well, then was bothered by THAT'S APRIORITY coming over from the inside then took up when a pair of rivals took the path from the outside, raced near the back of the field and was unable to mount a rally. ANACREON broke well, then ducked into and through the temporary rail about a hundred yards into the race, dropped the rider then chased the field on the infield along the inside of the rail, rejoined the pack at the turf chute then was eventually caught by the outrider and walked off. STEWARDS INQUIRY INTO THE EARLY STAGES OF THE RACE AFTER A REVIEW NO ACTION WAS TAKEN.
