Chart notes

BRIGHTY , forced out at the break, quickly regrouped and edged up wide into the first turn, was confidently handled four wide stalking through the backstretch, bid in hand outside the leader leaving the far turn, went clear approaching the stretch, responded when put to firm asking in upper stretch, eagerly pulled away and was kept alert to the wire. ZOPPI FISCHBEIN bore out at the break, straightened and chased off the inside shifted wider around the final turn, circled four wide into the lane and battled back outside rivals to just get the place. SHALLUS , in close at the break, settled towards the inisde, moved up near the half, eased out for the drive and kept trying between foes. ARTHUR'S COURT was sent clear early, set the pace in about the two path, sparred inside the winner from the far turn to past the five sixteenths, gave hard chase while saving ground past mid stretch then gave way grudgingly.
