Chart notes

NO NEED TO PANIC settled just off the inside near the rear of the field, remained patiently handled until placed to coaxing nearing the quarter pole, angled six to seven wide into upper stretch, offered up a good finish to collar the leader nearing the sixteenth pole, then prevailed geared down at the end while edging clear to the wire. COPPER CADUCEUS chased along the inside down the backstretch, tipped two then three wide through the turn coming under coaxing with five-sixteenths to go and rallying in tandem with YOU KNOW BETTER to her inside, had that rival attempt to nudge her way out at the quarter pole and denied the move keeping the rightful lane and swung five to six wide into upper stretch as that rival was forced to steady in behind MIDNIGHT BLUE, offered up a mild kick to secure the place honors, then got pulled up after the finish and was vetted and subsequently walked to the main track and transported off the track via the equine ambulance. SUITED CONNECTORS three wide in pursuit from near the rear of the field, got coaxed along with three furlongs to run, angled eight wide into upper stretch, closed well to procure the show honors on the final jumps to the wire. MIDNIGHT BLUE chased four wide under a ride from the five-sixteenths, swung three to four wide into upper stretch, offered up a bid a furlong out, then flattened out in the late stages. CHAUMET chased along the inside coming under a ride with five-sixteenths to go, spun two to three wide into upper stretch, made no headway. ADDAGIRL ADDIE chased along the inside and then just off the inside under urging from the seven-sixteenths pole, angled four to five wide into upper stretch and passed tired rivals to the wire. RAISED coaxed from the gate, showed the way in hand along the inside coming under coaxing near the quarter pole, took the inside route into upper stretch, dug in under a drive and was caught nearing the sixteenth marker and weakened through to the finish. FORCE OF MISCHIEF broke in at the start brushing YOU KNOW BETTER, chased two to three paths off the inside, tucked inside half a mile from home, came under encouragement three furlongs out and took the inside route into upper stretch, then weakened in the drive. AMIRA'S STAR broke a half a beat slow, chased along the inside under a ride nearing the quarter pole, spun two to three wide for home and tired. YOU KNOW BETTER got brushed at the break by FORCE OF MISCHIEF, who broke inwards, chased just off the inside coming under a ride inside the three-eighths marker, advanced in tandem with COPPER CADUCEUS to her outside from the five-sixteenths to the quarter pole and leaned out attempting to nudge that foe out a path and was denied the move when COPPER CADUCEUS held steadfast to her lane, got forced to check off the heels in tight behind MIDNIGHT BLUE before heading five wide into upper stretch re-engaged by her rider and came up empty tiring through to the end. BURGUNDIE ROSE chased five then four wide under a ride from the seven-sixteenths pole, tipped six to seven wide into upper stretch and made no impact. AVERY'S WONDERLAND bobbled at the break, chased five paths off the inside down the backstretch and then three wide through the turn ridden along from the three-eighths marker, went four wide into upper stretch and faltered.
