WHITE MOUNTAIN showed early speed between rivals then stalked the top pair off the inside, bid three wide outside the leader at the quarter pole, kicked clear in upper stretch and drew off. SILVER N BLACK settled inside, moved into range on the backstretch, lacked room and suffered a mild shuffle on the far turn before shifting around a rival, tried to launch a bid up the rail into the lane but got put in tight and checked at the three-sixteenths pole, then altered out and finished gamely to the earn second. THE GYPSY COWBOY settled three wide then between rivals in the two path on the first turn, angled five wide midway around the far turn, moved back in and chased three wide into the lane and gained third. SOUL MUSIC dueled from outside, cleared briefly at the five-sixteenths pole, took pressure from the winner at the quarter pole, bumped with SILVER N BLACK at the top of the lane and yielded to WHITE MOUNTAIN, then weakened in the furlong grounds. TOPPERS WAGER trailed wide into the first turn then angled to the inside, steered back out on the second bend, came four wide into the lane and passed tired rivals. SINFUL KING chased four then three wide around the first turn dropped off the pace, moved into striking distance in the middle stages, rounded the far turn three then four wide and came up empty in the lane. ELEGANT LIFE dueled from inside, failed to keep up at the five-sixteenths pole and started to weaken, trailed into the stretch and tired. THE RIDER ABOARD SILVER N BLACK LODGED AN OBJECTION AGAINST WHITE MOUNTAIN FOR ALLEGED INTERFERENCE IN UPPER STRETCH. THERE WAS ALSO A STEWARDS' INQUIRY INVOLVING THE SAME MATTER. FOLLOWING A REVIEW, THE STEWARDS RULED THAT SILVER N BLACK CAUSED HIS OWN PROBLEMS BY TRYING TO SQUEEZE THROUGH A TIGHT SPOT IN UPPER STRETCH AND WHITE MOUNTAIN WAS NOT AT FAULT SO NO ACTION WOULD BE TAKEN.
