Chart notes

AIBELL was allowed to settle off the pace, was cued four wide through the far turn, bumped GALLANT RUNNER at the three sixteenths, took charge at the eighth and finished firmly. GALLANT RUNNER was forwardly placed between runners, attempted a three wide bid at the top of the stretch but was bumped inward by AIBELL at the three sixteenths, shifted out to the four path and rallied well for the final furlong. YAMMY YAMMY BELLA was rated along the inside, closed in through the far turn to enter the stretch in a competitive position alongside three others, got edged out for second and was awarded the show. ALWAYS PRAISING vied for the early lead with two others from the inside, claimed sole command midway through the first turn, opened up a few lengths in the backstretch before meeting a couple bids in the far turn, met another inside bid rounding the far turn and dueled between foes in the upper stretch, flattened out in the final furlong. MISTRIAL WIND was placed around the middle of the pack four wide, launched a three wide bid in the far turn to vie for command with ALWAYS PRAISING, weakened in the final furlong. FILLYRULES raced off the pace, trailed at the half, passed tiring foes. LIL MISS LOLLIPOP broke a step slow, trailed for the first half, made some minor improvements four wide. DIAMONDINTHEDARK vied for the early lead three wide, backed off a few lengths through the first turn, moved back up to stalk the pace in the far turn but retreated at the quarter. SUNDAY SENSE vied for the early lead between runners, surrendered to ALWAYS PRAISING midway through the first turn and chased the pace up the backstretch, moved up to press the pace through the far turn but was checked back at the quarter, showed little in the stretch. JOCKEY'S OBJECTION LODGED BY THE RIDER OF GALLANT RUNNER ON AIBELL CLAIMING INTERFERENCE AT THE TOP OF THE STRETCH WAS DISALLOWED BY THE STEWARDS.
