Chart notes

GLYCOGEN was taken under a tight hold early then rated just off the pace on the inside, came under urging in the vicinity of the seven-sixteenths pole, chased inside on the far turn, spun into the stretch in the two path, moved out while put to a left-handed crop inside the three-sixteenths pole, rallied to get the lead coming to the sixteenth-pole then swapped back to her inside lead, switched back to the proper lead late and prevailed under good handling. MEL WENT HOME stalked the pace on the outside in the two path, made a bid while asked when joined to the outside by PROS AND CONS around the seven-sixteenths pole, vied outside the pacesetter in the two path on the far turn, was roused outside the quarter-pole, took the lead into upper stretch, shook clear inside the three-sixteenths pole, raced under a right-handed crop into the final furlong, swapped back to her inside lead while being headed at the sixteenth-pole and was outfinished while clear for the place. PROS AND CONS hit the inside of the gate and was last away, moved out early, rounded the first turn in the two path, was rated just off the pace on the outside, moved up to make a bid near the seven-sixteenths pole, dropped back with three furlongs to run, was given her cue in the three path on the far turn, chased under a drive into the final furlong and weakened but was well clear for the show. BALIAGE (IRE) had the neighbor to her inside rear up and get her legs into her stall before being scratched, easily went to the front, showed the way on the inside under a snug hold, was asked inside the five-sixteenths pole, lost the advantage to the runner-up into upper stretch and gave way. URGENT CLAIRE dropped back early, fell well behind in the two path, was urged along passing the half-mile pole, continued in the two path through the far turn and showed little.
