Chart notes

RAPTURE BAY assumed command setting a pedestrian pace up top with little pressure applied from the outside foe, continued to dictate the soft pace along the backside, was briefly challenged outside at the three-furlong marker, quickly spurted clear once again under a well rationed ride and won comfortably at the finish having plenty left in the stretch drive. MEHLEK settled on the rail part of the back trio in the beginning, co-trailed inside another along the backside, started to uncork a rally three wide between rivals with three furlongs still to run, angled out four wide finding his best stride late and closed in steadily down the lane to get the place share but could not threaten the winner who had the race all his own way. CHANCEL was content to track the pacesetter outside in the early going, moved in to duel outside on the far turn at the three eighths marker, was unable to quicken at the top of the stretch chasing the winner in vain and just got caught for the runners up share by the oncoming foe outside just before the wire. ROYAL HUDSON stalked three wide between horses near the rear in the beginning, ranged up three deep outside foes down the backside, was under a ride but could not accelerate with the front two runners at the five sixteenths pole and evened out late to settle on the fringes in the end. HELL BENT was at the back of the pack just off the fence with runners on either side going into the first of two turns, improved to be in mid-division between rivals down the backside, was hard ridden but was being passed by another foe outside making a run midway on the second bend and failed to menace in the two path down the lane. MISTER MESEEKS travelled four wide on the outside in the first bend at the rear, could see the field while outside another down the back straight, had not rally going four wide on the last turn and could not get involved in the drive to the finish line continuing on with the four wide trip. BREAK THE SPELL was hard held on the rail watching the lead two in the first turn, rated kindly on the rail in midfield along the backstretch, was roused for more inside foes at the three-furlong pole but offered little response, backed away through the far turn and could not factor inside foes in the stretch running.
