Chart notes

NEED MO DIAMONDS set the pace under pressure, edged clear on the turn, lost the crop in upper stretch and maintained a comfortable lead over MILES FINCH to the wire under hand urging. MILES FINCH bobbled and bumped hard with outer rival leaving the gate, followed behind the leader along the inside, moved out in the lane and kept on gamely but had to settle for second best. LETMEIN tracked just out of range, went two wide around the turn, angled out in upper stretch and rallied for third. HURRICANE WAY traveled near the back, saved ground through the turn, cut the corner into the stretch and got outkicked for third. SUN CHASER forwardly placed three deep, chased two wide leaving the turn and weakened in the furlong grounds. LUCK LUCKY (IRE) stalked up the backstretch, asked two then three wide on the turn and weakened in the drive. MADDIE TEE shifted in and bumped hard leaving the gate, trailed on the inside around the bend, steered out in the lane and failed to menace. DANZING WILD CAT pressed the pace from outside to the turn, chased between rivals around the bend and faded.
