Chart notes

BENJI STAR rated around the first turn, sent to the attack four wide into the second bend, swept past the leader leaving the quarter pole, kept to task in upper stretch, much the best under the wire. TALKLESSWORKMORE stalked the leader around the first turn, roused on between approaching the quarter pole, no match for runaway winner turning for home, chased on late, second best. GUAPO AGAIN (ARG) raced well off the pace and off the rail down the backside, took aim four wide upper, finished willingly for the show. IN THE CHASE roused along inside down the back stretch, bid between rivals upper, running on the wrong lead, had no late kick. TIZ NO CLOWN broke alertly, chased inside off the topflight into the far turn, weakened through the lane. THUNDERIAN outrun down the backside, never factored. PAY ZONE fractious in the gate pre-start, sent to the lead around the first turn, collared nearing the quarter pole, faltered through the stretch.
