Footnotes
ROCKETEIGHTYEIGHT broke out, never far back while out in the strip, closer three wide turn, dueled into the lane, long drive, narrowly gained the nod. RAVIN'S TOWN narrowly set the pace up the backstretch in the two path, dropped to the inside late in the turn when dueling with the winner, continued to hold a slight advantage past the furlong, narrowly missed the nod. IT'S BOBS BUSINESS last to leave, moved out, four wide into the turn, five wide exiting, rallied down the middle of the strip to gain the show while closing the gap on the top pair. FITZPATRICK broke out, raced in the main body toward the inside, in some traffic late in the turn, steered out for the drive, rallied mildly, flattened late. DENINGTON lacked early foot just off the inside, angled out to be four wide into the stretch, improved slightly without posing a serious threat. LEA ME BE one pace while racing outside, came four wide for the drive, lacked a closing kick. PALACE KITTEN back off the pace along the inside, made little impact through the stretch. MIGHTY MESSAGE pressed the runner up from along the inside, began to give way late in the turn, continued to fade. FIRE BRYAN was finished early while racing off the inside. FLOTATION STATION within striking distance early while racing off the inside, began a steady retreat before a half.
