Footnotes
EQUILIBRIUM was bumped by an inner foe at the start, tracked along the inside, rallied to bid two wide and between horses into the final sixteenth then edged past. HIGHWAY PATROL stalked from the three to two path, tipped to the four path entering the lane, rallied to forge an advantage while bidding with an inner rival at the sixteenth pole, sparred with that co-bidder late but got outfinished. JACK CHARLES (GB) showed the way in the two path, remained in hand around the turn, drew clear entering the lane but got caught by an outer pair at the sixteenth pole and yielded. PROPS broke slowly, trailed early on, tucked to the two path into the turn, shifted out to the six path in upper stretch and moved up. CHATTERFIELD broke outwardly and bumped a rival at the start, pursued from midpack along the inside then stayed on mildly. GRAB THE SPARK settled two wide, shifted out to the five path in midstretch then failed to menace. CARDINAL UNION was reluctant behind the gate then broke a step slow, saved ground off of the pace to no avail. EXODUS pressed the leader from the three path into the turn, came under urging with five sixteenths to go then weakened. BIG FUZZ broke a step slow, tracked from the three path, chased in the five path into the lane then weakened. J DAVID lacked speed in the three path then got outrun.
