Chart notes

GARDEN OF WAR watched the frontrunner while three deep on the outside in the early stages, ranged up midturn poised to move outside with three furlongs to go, loomed menacingly three wide in upper stretch, switched leads late under confident handling at the sixteenth pole taking control and held safe under mild urging at the finish line. WARHOL stalked outside horses down the back straight, made no impression travelling just off the fence throughout the turn, angled out five wide for the drive, was in full flight the final furlong reaching for ground and closed in smartly to be second best at the wire. HERE I GO was brushed outside then subsequently forced inwards appearing to catch the inside rivals heels on the break, recouped quickly to be loose on the lead in the early going, continued up top but by a diminishing margin with three eighths to go, was headed outside by the winner while in the two path straightening out for home, dug back in until the furlong marker when he had little left and faded late to hold for the show money. FLIRTING WITH FIRE broke in at the start tracking the pacesetter inside a rival down the backside, could not keep up with the front twosome by midturn, still though was in the hunt behind the lead pair for a minor role in upper stretch and finished up mildly to settle on the fringes in the end. ARISTOTLE stalked on the rail near the rear, saved ground making little impact inside around the bend, shifted to the three path with a quarter mile from home and finished with intent on the outside passing a few rivals in mid-stretch. WESTMINSTER had an outside trip in mid-division down the back straight, made a brief move around the turn at the three eighths pole narrowing the gap on the front pair, shifted out three wide for the drive in with a chance for a minor share in upper stretch but could not find more in the late running and weakened in the final eighth of a mile. STITCHES settled on the rail in midfield, kept pace taking the short way around the turn, had the fence position in the mix for a small piece of the prize in upper stretch but had no finish to offer in the final furlong. COOLCOLLECTED was void of early speed trailing along the backside, made little headway going three wide around the oval, lost touch with the pack by mid-stretch and cantered across the wire.
