Footnotes
GRAND SLAM SMILE came away cleanly while last away, move up quickly to duel for command on the inside, inched ahead ISSA COURT into the turn, put that rival away with a quarter mile remaining, kicked away in upper stretch and padded the lead under right handed urging and steady handling. BIG HUG brushed with CLUBHOUSE CUTIE in the beginning, trailed early, asked three then four wide around the bend, showed late run and got up for second. SHE'S NO QUANT stalked the top pair outside a pair of rivals, picked up stride and drew closer in the three path on the turn, watched GRAND SLAM SMILE draw away in upper stretch and could not hold on for second. CLUBHOUSE CUTIE brushed BIG HUG leaving the gate, chased the dueling leaders from between runners, bumped LINO'S ANGEL and took up in tight quarters early on the turn, chased three wide into the lane and could not threaten. ISSA COURT dueled from outside to the turn, kept the pressure on the winner to the five-sixteenths pole, failed to keep up with a quarter mile left to run and faded through the stretch. LINO'S ANGEL bobbled slightly and out a bit leaving the gate, stalked the leaders inside a pair of rivals, bumped with CLUBHOUSE CUTIE early on the turn, saved ground to the stretch and tired.
