I'm almost to the end of the telecast, and have heard no mention that Antley came off Shy Tom on race day.

Does the chart just have it majorly wrong?

One poignant point of the 1989 telecast is when Charlsie Canty and Jim McKay are holding Pat Valenzuela and Chris Antley up as fine 1989 examples for others that it's possible to overcome drug addiction and resume doing great things in life.
Going a bit further using your link, you find that Walter Andress rode in two other Kentucky Derby's:

a 16th place finish with Booker Bill in 1915, and a 14th place finish on Berlin in 1917
