Chart notes

BOREALIS TRAIL settled in mid-division just off the fence along the backside, galloped along relaxed in the third tier inside foes waiting for the cue to go, shifted out four wide at the quarter pole reaching for more ground, angled out further coming with a sharp turn of foot at the furlong marker in the six path and stormed past for the win in the final seventy yards. PERFECTWORKS broke out on the break, pressed inside in the early going, darted up the rail to assume command with five eighths still to go, continued up top on the rail by a narrow margin around the turn, spurted away from his pursuer two wide straightening out for the drive, moved strong down the lane but just could not find enough in deep stretch to fend off the late burst by the winner in the final seventy yards. MO' SPRESSO prompted the pace three deep early on, took back to watch the front two at the five furlong pole, moved comfortably tracking the lead pair outside around the bend, began to make a run four wide turning for home closing between rivals, could not accelerate with the winner charging outside in the final sixteenth but finished up determinedly trying to get into second money late but having to settle for third place instead at the wire. KING ROSSO was away alertly on the start, dropped back outside horses through the backstretch to stalk only ahead of one rival at the five eighths marker, made no progression on the turn co-trailing inside at the five sixteenths pole, tried to begin a rally two wide at the quarter pole but traded bumps with the outside runner in upper stretch, shifted out in the five path at the furlong marker finding his best stride and finished up willingly to settle on the fringes. TRIP ACES stalked close to the back ahead of only two rivals in the early stages, lacked running room in the two path between rivals around the turn making no progression, shifted out five wide at the top of the lane having a clear path but could only finish up gradually in the stretch never reaching contention in the late running. ACCELERANDO broke in on the start, tussled for the front between foes in the beginning, tracked the frontrunner outside at the five furlong pole, moved in to hound the pacesetter outside through the turn, chased on the rail when urged in upper stretch in the hunt for a piece of the prize but faded on the fence in the last sixteenth of a mile. PROUDLY HAILED (GB) was in the mix in the five path up front after the break, was checked losing momentum for a few strides around the seven eighths pole, settled in the second flight in the three path between horses down the backside, travelled three wide in midfield on the turn, was shuffled back at the five sixteenths pole, exchanged bumps with the inside foes three wide leaving the quarter pole and failed to menace in the stretch drive. HELLO STRANGER was void of any early speed trailing along the backside, still remained at the back of the pack around the turn, swung out widest in the eight path in upper stretch but managed to pass a few tired runners down the lane. MOPHARRA broke in at the break, stalked ahead of only one rival while on the fence along the backside, took the short way on the turn going in hand, edged up by the five sixteenths pole, skimmed the fence turning for home, shifted out three wide for clear run at the three sixteenths pole but failed to offer a finishing rally inside foes in the final furlong. KAMASI was squeezed at the start to be at the rear leaving the gate, advanced quickly inside horses down the backstretch to draft behind the frontrunner at the five eighths pole, had the rail in the second flight holding position through the turn, shifted to the two path entering the long stretch, could not find another gear and folded inside runners at the furlong marker. GLOBETROTTING was bumped inside on the start, recovered to watch the lead trio while going three deep along the backside, kept pace in the second flight three wide on the bend, was urged for more right handed at the five sixteenth pole but was going in the wrong direction and faltered in the six path at the top of the lane between runners. NAUGHTY FROSTY settled in the middle of the pack four deep midway down the back straight, travelled four wide outside horses under a ride finding it hard to keep up with inside rivals by the three eighths pole, shifted out to the seven path for the drive to the wire but had no more to give between runners by the furlong pole.
