Chart notes

MAJESTIC RETURN angled in while showing speed then disputed the pace on the outside, vied in the two path for most of the turn, moved to the three path while shaking clear outside the quarter-pole, dropped in a path while roused into upper stretch, drew off under a drive into the final furlong, was kept to the task into the final sixteenth then eased up some late while much the best. LINARITE dropped back under urging then trailed the field, went around the turn in the two then three path, was driven into the stretch in the five path then moved further out and improved to get the place. MOON GATE angled in while showing speed then contested the pace on the inside of the winner, vied along the rail while roused on the turn, dropped back coming to the quarter-pole, moved out in upper stretch and weakened then lost the place while clear for the show. DOLCE SERA dropped back at the start, was ridden along on the outside, traveled around the turn in the four path, was driven into the stretch in the five path and failed to rally. HAPPY VALENTINE broke out and bumped with a foe, was well placed just off the pace under some urging, chased inside to the two path on the turn, spun into the stretch in the three path and came up empty. SHE'S COMPLICATED was bumped at the start, moved out early then chased the pace, raced in the three path on the turn, dropped back in the four path into the stretch and tired.
