Footnotes
APERITIF was lightly bumped at the start, stalked from between runners, was carried nine wide by the drifting leader leaving the turn, struck the lead in upper- to mid-stretch then held. GRANITE HALL was bumped at the start, settled well back racing off the rail, came out a bit in mid-stretch, rallied too late. GOOD CONDUCT bumped a rival lightly at the start, advanced inside on the turn cutting the corner into upper stretch, was in contention near the furlong grounds but outkicked. TWENTY FOUR CARA got away alertly setting the pace from off the inside, bore out leaving the turn but was still contending through upper stretch, weakened late. CHARLOTTE'S CAY stalked from outside three to four wide on the turn, was carried seven wide leaving that bend shifting in at the top of the stretch, ran on. CHAMPAGNE BRUNCH switched out off the inside heading up the backstretch, raced off the rail inside a foe on the turn, came into upper stretch four to five wide, failed to rally. LUX chased the pace racing in behind, saved ground on the turn, weakened in the stretch. PUB QUEEN (IRE) pursued up close racing outside a foe four wide into the turn, was carried out leaving that bend then altered in at the top of the stretch, failed to rally. CARAMELLA GEE got away awkwardly and slowly and in tight, was distanced, walked off.
