Chart notes

BLESSED ARION chased the leaders between horses up the backstretch, raced in the three path around the turn, began a bid in upper stretch, improved position between horses, drifted out slightly coming into close contact with STRIKE ME DOWN near the wire and just got the bob. STRIKE ME DOWN raced off the pace on the outside in the early going, navigated the turn from the three path, swung wide entering the stretch, drifted in, bumping with REED KAN in the process, continued to drift in, coming into tight quarters with BLESSED ARION and battled to the wire to just miss. PALIO raced off pace on the inside up the backstretch, saved ground around the turn and gained ground steadily on the rail in the final furlong. REED KAN stalked the leaders on the outside through the opening quarter of a mile, raced in the three path around the turn, was forced into tight quarters and bumped by STRIKE ME DOWN near the eighth pole and chased on to the wire. TAPE TO TAPE hit the gate leaving it, recovered to press the pace on the outside up the backstretch, dueled from the two path around the turn and down the lane and gave way in the final strides. LOVE YOU MUCH trailed the field up the backstretch, saved ground around the turn, switched to the outside in upper stretch and passed tiring horses from there. EQUULEUS raced off the pace between horses, navigated the turn from the three path and improved position mildly between horses in the lane. LONGSHADOW raced in the middle of the pack on the outside early, came around the turn in the two path and made up some ground between horses while never truly threatening. TRUST OUR JOURNEY led the field on the inside up the backstretch, dueled while saving ground around the turn and in upper stretch and weakened late. CLINT MAROON (GB) tracked the leaders on the outside through the opening quarter of a mile, raced in the three path around the turn and flattened out in the final furlong. HARRY'S ONTHELOOSE chased the leaders on the inside up the backstretch, saved ground around the turn and faded in the lane. AN OBJECTION WAS FILED BY THE RIDER OF HORSE FIVE, STRIKE ME DOWN, CITING INTERFERENCE FROM HORSE EIGHT, BLESSED ARION, NEAR THE WIRE. A SECOND OBJECTION WAS FILED BY THE RIDER OF HORSE TEN, REED KAN, CITING INTERFERENCE BY HORSE FIVE, STRIKE ME DOWN, NEAR THE EIGHTH POLE. UPON REVIEW, THE STEWARDS MADE NO CHANGES TO THE ORDER OF FINISH.
