Chart notes

GOLDEN QUALITY pressed the early pace, came around the turn on the outside, made a wide bid and drove clear. EL MERO MERO went to the front, saved ground around the final turn, was forwardly placed throughout, proved no match for the winner, but held on for second. SARAH'S VISION raced near the middle of the field, made a wide bid and missed second. STRONG EAGLE lacked early speed, showed late interest, but was no real factor. MOR JAZZ raced in the middle of the field, saved ground around the second turn and finished evenly. LOST DA VINCI raced near the back, had an outside trip, moved up, but was no threat. SUMMERTIME PEPPERS raced within contention, came around the final turn on the outside turn and faded. SCALLYWAG lacked early speed, came around the first turn five wide, finished inside and showed little. IBERIAN RUNNER pressed the early pace, dropped back and was outrun. GOTTA DEAL always raced near the back and trailed.
