Footnotes
LITTLE EM was off slowly, trailed early on after the poor start, saved ground through the far turn, angled five wide and surged clear late under steady pressure. NAYKESH pressed the early leader from the outside, was clear near the sixteenth pole and missed in a game effort. MARY CLAIRE showed good early foot to set the pace and weakened a bit the final eighth of a mile. OBSTACLE GAL urged along early from the inside, eased out five wide into the upper stretch and was even late with no closing run. FRANCESNFRIENDS chased the pace from the inside and weakened. KRAFTS PALACE was off slowly, raced three wide around the far turn and never threatened. MOM'S HANDS was off a step slow, raced three to four wide around the far turn and never menaced.
