Chart notes

VRONTI (GB) saved ground around the first turn, settled in the middle of the pack for the run up the backstretch, continued to save ground around the second turn, began a bid entering the stretch and gained ground late to get up for the win. QUEEN DANCING (GB) raced in the two path early, stalked the leader between horses up the backstretch, navigated the second bend from the three path, drifted in in midstretch and gained ground steadily from there. OPERA DE RAVEL (FR) raced in the two path around the first turn, pressed the pace on the outside up the backstretch, continued around the far turn still in the two path and chased on while drifting out in the stretch. POR VOCE bumped with the horse to her inside at the start, recovered to lead the way on the rail through the opening half mile, continued to save ground around the far bend, dueled in the stretch, and was caught late. TELLNOTALES saved ground around the first turn, chased the leader up the backstretch, navigated the far turn from the two path, raced into traffic in the final furlong and took up and was outkicked from there. ANDROMACHE bumped with the horse to his outside at the break, raced in the two path early, settled off the pace for the run up the backstretch, came around the far bend in the two path and showed no kick. GHOSTS LIL SECRET raced off the pace on the inside around the first turn and up the backstretch, navigated the far turn from the two path and offered no bid. WHIRLAWAR raced in the three path around the first bend, tracked the leader on the outside up the backstretch, dropped back while saving ground around the second turn and continued to fade from there.
