3 Stewards inquiry, jockey objection and trainer's objection - #4 Love Pack (Brian Boodramsingh) claimed foul on the #5 Stonevicious (Ridge Balgobin) in the stretch run. After reviewing films and talking to both jockeys, it was determined that the #5 did drift out, bumping #4. Therefore, # 5 who finished first, was disqualified and placed second. Official order of finish was 4-5-1-3.
