Chart notes

WINTER'S GHOST raced in the three path around the first turn, tracked the leaders on the outside up the backstretch, began a bid from the three path coming around the far turn, raced in tight quarters approaching the quarter pole, kicked clear and dueled to the wire to hold the win. WAR CROSS raced in the two path early, trailed the field up the backstretch, began a bid from the four path coming around the second bend and dueled to the wire but could not get by the winner. GOLDEN TONE raced off the pace on the outside through the opening half mile, continued around the far turn in the four path, began a bid passing the quarter pole and improved position in the lane. ARIES REIGNS raced in the five path early, continued up the backstretch in the middle of the pack on the outside, came around the second bend still in the five path and passed tiring horses in the stretch. HEFFNER saved ground around the first turn, led the way on the inside up the backstretch, continued to save ground around the far turn, raced in tight quarters and steadied near the quarter pole and weakened further in the final furlong. EXACTING pressed the pace on the outside through the opening half mile, continued around the far turn in the two path, was squeezed in tight quarters and stumbled approaching the quarter pole, steadied and faded from there. PIYPA DE LYNDA raced in the two path around the first bend, settled in the middle of the pack on the inside for the run up the backstretch, came around the far turn in the three path and was empty in the lane. CUZ raced in the three path around the first turn, continued off the pace on the inside up the backstretch and around the second bend and was not a factor. A STEWARDS INQUIRY WAS MADE INTO THE INCIDENT NEAR THE QUARTER POLE. ADDITIONALLY, THE RIDER OF HORSE ONE, HEFFNER, FILED AN OBJECTION AGAINST HORSE SIX, WINTER'S GHOST, CITING INTERFERENCE AT THE SAME SPOT. UPON REVIEW, NO CHANGES WERE MADE TO THE ORDER OF FINISH.
