Chart notes

COUNTERACT saved ground while being unhurried, slipped through during the drive and finished with a rush to be up in the final strides. I'M NOBLE tracked LUCKY CODE racing along the inside, came three-wide into the stretch and finished strongly. LUCKY CODE saved ground setting the pace, drifted out to come five-wide into the stretch, responded when challenged and held on gamely to the wire. BACKGROUND was allowed to settle racing tree-wide, came four-wide into the stretch and lacked a rally. HOUSE OF LORDS was forwardly placed racing two-wide, came three-wide into the stretch and weakened. JIMMY B raced in the back of the field while two-wide and failed to be a factor.
