Chart notes

JOHN'S JUNE was bumped by foe at the start, stalked the early pace three wide, slowly closed in through the turn to take charge at the quarter, opened up in the upper stretch under right handed urging, took the inside at the eighth before switching sticks and drew clear to be much the best. NAYKESH pressed the early pace from the inside, backed off a couple lengths before the turn, tipped out four wide to pass tiring foe but was no match for the winner. MARY CLAIRE broke sharply to be the early pace setter, settled along the inside before the turn, came under immense pressure through the turn to ultimately give way to JOHN'S JUNE at the quarter, flattened out down the stretch to finish third. FRANCESNFRIENDS hit the gate and bumped foe at the start, found position around the middle of the pack, ducked out a couple of paths at the top of the stretch in response to left handed encouragement, quickly switched sticks to continue down the stretch in a straight path but was unable to make any improvements. RAINY DAY raced off the pace, never threatened. ARGUING LOUISE trailed throughout, outran.
