Chart notes
FLORIDA GATOR pressed the pace from the outside of TEXAS HUMOR entering the stretch the first time, continued to force the issue two wide in the run down the backstretch and into the final turn, took control entering the final turn, and finished willingly one out from the rail in the drive to fend off HANKY PRANKY late to prevail. HANKY PRANKY stalked the leaders through the stretch the first time while saving ground at the rail, maintained his position in the run down the backstretch, rallied four wide entering the final turn, and closed determinedly three wide in the drive to just miss. SLOOP JOHN B away alertly and stalked the leaders through the stretch the first time while racing one out from the rail, launched his bid three wide entering the final turn, and closed willingly two wide in the drive to garner a share. BETTER TONE away well, but was allowed to settle off the contested early pace while saving ground at the rail entering the lane the first time, trailed the field in the run down the backside, commenced his bid three wide from the back of the pack entering the final turn, and found his best stride late while finishing two out from the rail. COUNTRY COWBOY settled well off the early leaders while racing one out from the rail entering the stretch the first time, began to advance midway down the backside to gain a striking trip in the run to the final turn, rallied two wide through the turn, but steadied sharply when bumped in mid stretch and never regained his momentum. TEXAS HUMOR broke sharply and raced to the lead from along the rail entering the first turn, set a pressured pace from along the rail through the second turn and in the run down the backstretch, struggled to match strides with her pace rival entering the final turn, and faded over the final furlong. Following the running of this race there was both a stewards inquiry as well as a trainers claim of foul. The trainer of COUNTRY COWBOY lodged a claim of foul against the rider of SLOOP JOHN B for alleged interference in mid stretch. After review the claim of foul was upheld, and SLOOP JOHN B was disquallified from third and placed fifth.
