Chart notes
LOVER BOY MO seized command from the rail right from the get-go, slowed things down loose up top along the backside, had a slim lead on the fence taking the short way around with a couple of rivals prompting the pace outside through the last turn, shot clear in an instant skimming the fence when called for more turning for home and coasted home comfortably for the frontrunning tally. CRYSTAL PEARL was allowed to settle into stride at the back of the pack around the first of two turns, shared the tail end outside down the backstretch, began to reach for more ground three wide at the three furlong pole, swung out widest gathering more speed six wide straightening out for the drive and rushed home outside runners in the final furling never switching leads but still was closing in resolutely in deep stretch to get up late for the runners up share. HELLO STRANGER was under a snug hold pulling at the rider while situated on the outside in the middle of the pack, took closer order to make his presence felt three wide at the three-furlong pole fighting for the lead outside of two others, shifted to the five path in the hunt in upper stretch, was no match for the winner who pulled away smartly by the eighth pole and just got nabbed outside by the late closing rival for the place share at the wire. APELDOORN was content tracking the lone speed outside initially, crept up on the leader outside down the backstretch by the half, vied between horses throwing it down around the second turn, had the three path between rivals in the mix at the head of the lane but the winner was beginning to slip away and faded on the rail at the furlong marker holding only for a minor placing in the end. LAKE NASSER was well held watching the lead two while having the fence on the first turn, sat in midfield on the rail still keeping an eye of the front duo at the half, remained poised behind the engaged trio at the quarter pole but could not close in late, lacking a finishing kick inside runners in the final furlong. WONDERFUL QUALITY had a stalking role ahead of only one runner in the beginning, co-trailed on the inside of another along the back straight, could see the field unable to get into gear at the three-furlong pole and could not be a factor in the stretch drive.
