Chart notes

CUBAN CONFUSION (GB) was rank early pursuing from the rail position, drafted behind behind leader to the lane, waited for room in upper stretch, tipped out at the eighth pole and challenged between rivals, then dug in and proved best late. KANSAS CAT (ARG) stalked three deep, came under a ride past the five-sixteenths pole, took aim three wide into the lane, challenged from outside with a furlong remaining, fought three deep in the last sixteenth and got outkicked by the winner. CHARGE FOR GOLD set all the pace from inside to the stretch, challenged by a pair of rivals in the final furlong and got outfinished. FLASHIEST reserved in the early going from inside, moved into range on the backstretch, lost some ground on the far turn, hugged the rail to the lane, altered out at the sixteenth pole and finished willingly to round out the superfecta. SUCHET (FR) was rank between rivals early, followed in range up the backstretch, crowded between rivals early on the far turn, continued in the two path to the stretch, tipped out for a clear run and finished evenly late. BIG BET JAFINSAFA settled in the two path between runners, continued two wide around the far turn and failed to respond. ANNAN was closest in pursuit in the two path to the top of the lane, weakened in the drive, unsaddled on the backstretch and was transported off the track via equine ambulance. RUSSELLS HUSTLE tracked in the four path on the clubhouse turn, three deep on the second bend and flattened in the stretch run. TAKES THREE reserved outside a pair of rivals in the opening stages, continued three wide around the far turn, tipped out into the stretch, weakened in the drive, also unsaddled on the backstretch and was transported off the track via equine ambulance. YACOWLEF (IRE) tucked inside at the back, trailed to the stretch and could not make an impact.
