Chart notes

DANG SON broke in and got bumped by outer rival, settled inside, moved off the rail on the backstretch, was on the move in the four path around the far turn, took aim in upper stretch, forced out a bit by bumping leaders past the eighth pole, dug in the last sixteenth and edged clear nearing the line. AUTOMATIC PRESS grabbed the early lead and moved inside, challenged by CLEAR AND PRESENT with three furlongs remaining, dueled into the stretch, shifted out and bumped CLEAR AND PRESENT twice inside the eighth pole, resisted into the final sixteenth, then yielded to the winner late. WILDCATTER was off a bit slow to begin, stalked keenly in hand on the inside before settling on the backstretch, flanked the leader into the far turn but got put in tight early on the bend, stayed on the fence to the stretch, finished willingly through the lane and edged CLEAR AND PRESENT for the show. CLEAR AND PRESENT raced up close in the two path, bid from outside at the three-eighths pole, dueled through the turn and into the lane, got bumped by AUTOMATIC PRESS twice inside the eighth pole, fought between with a sixteenth remaining and could not summon the needed final kick. LUBIES PRINCE was off slow to begin, tracked from the two path in the early going, chased between runners still in the two path on the far turn, remained close through the lane but finished evenly late. ITINERARY broke in and bumped, tucked inside at the back, crept closer inside a rival in the middle stages, angled out into the stretch, chased out of range into the final sixteenth, then showed good late energy to close the gap. OSCAR STORM stalked three deep to the far turn, started to weaken around the bend and tired in the drive. THERE WAS AN INQUIRY INVOLVING AUTOMATIC PRESS AND CLEAR AND PRESENT IN THE STRETCH RUN. FOLLOWING A REVIEW, THE STEWARDS UNANIMOULSLY RULED TO DISQUALIFY AUTOMATIC PRESS FROM SECOND TO FOURTH FOR SHIFTING OUT AND BUMPING CLEAR AND PRESENT TWICE, COSTING THAT RIVAL A CHANCE AT A BETTER PLACING.
