Chart notes

MASHALLAH showed speed then stalked the leading duo on the outside, turned up the pressure in the three path on the turn, took the advantage into upper stretch, shook clear inside the three-sixteenths pole, drew away under the crop until near the sixteenth-pole and proved much the best under steady urging. FEMINISM broke a bit awkwardly but right with the front of the field, showed speed inside of foes and disputed the pace, vied along the rail on the turn, lost touch with the winner while under a drive in upper stretch and proved no match but earned the place. LOVELY CHRISTINA bobbled slightly just after the start, showed speed between horses then contested the pace, vied in the two path on the turn, dropped back while remaining on her inside lead in upper stretch, came out inside the furlong marker and weakened while continuing on her inside lead but was clear for the show. LIGHTSCAPE was a bit reluctant to load, broke out then dropped back after the start, was urged along well off the pace on the outside, went around the turn in the three path and failed to threaten. IRRESISTIBLE dropped back early and settled well off the pace, was roused in the two path on the turn, swung out to the four path into the stretch and failed to rally.
