Chart notes

BLUERIDGE MOUNTAIN hesitated at the break, settled off the early going, moved up between rivals through the far turn, came in a bit in the stretch run, bumped with Tigerbeach and forced rival to take up midstretch. Jockey of Tigerbeach filed an objection against Blueridge Mountain for interference in the stretch run and stewards disqualified the winner and placed him fifth. FOOLISH STEVE stalked the pace from the outside, moved up three to four wide in the lane and finished gamely to the wire. BIG FALCON ROCKET was sent along to showed good early speed down the backstretch from the inside and weakened a bit in the latter stages. LIGHTHAWK settled off the early pace, moved up five wide near the three sixteenths pole and flattened out in the drive. TIGERBEACH stalked the early pace, raced towards the inside, was bumped, forced to take up sharply midstretch and weakened thereafter. WHITE MIST pressed the leader from the outside and gave way.
