Chart notes

BABY SASSICAIA was bumped soundly at the start, went around the first turn in the two then three path, followed the solo leader from second, moved closer late on the backstretch, made a bid in the three path on the far turn, took the lead at the top of the stretch, kicked clear near the three-sixteenths pole and drew away under strong urging. SHEER WILL was hustled from the gate, raced inside on the first turn, showed the way with a clear advantage, went around the far turn in the two path while challenged by the runner-up, was given her cue outside the quarter-pole, lost the advantage at the top of the stretch and proved no match for the winner while clear for the place. EMPLOYEEOFTHEMONTH brushed with a rival just after the start, raced in the three path on the first turn, settled off the pace, moved closer with five furlongs to run, was roused while inside on the far turn, moved to the two path outside the quarter-pole, was driven into the stretch in the four path and weakened while best of the rest. HERE'SYOURTROUBLE brushed with an opponent after the start, rounded the first turn in the two then three path, settled towards the rear, moved closer around the nine-sixteenths pole, was urged along in the three then two path on the far turn, swung out to the five path into the stretch and came up empty. SASSY MAXINE broke out and bumped soundly with a rival, saved ground on the first turn, tossed her head several times passing the seven-eighths pole, settled at the rear, was urged along in the two path on the far turn, turned into the stretch under the crop and failed to threaten. LADY GUNNER traveled around the first turn in the four path, settled on the outside, dropped back while hard ridden in the four path on the far turn and capitulated. CONTRACT LAW was sent hard from the gate, went around the opening bend in the five path, settled on the outside, was urged along passing the nine-sixteenths pole, dropped back in the five path on the far turn and faltered. TAFAANY was hustled from the gate, moved from the three path to the rail on the first turn, settled under some urging, dropped back leaving the backstretch and also faltered then was eased but walked off.
