Footnotes
MERIDIAN MAE vied between rivals to the five-sixteenths pole, dueled inside TWISTED HUMOR with a quarter mile remaining, shook free in upper stretch and drew off under right handed urging. CAMMY'S GIRL got bumped back at the start, raced outside a rival then three deep at the back early, went four wide around the bend and ran on for second. TWISTED HUMOR vied three deep to the three-eighths pole, dueled outside MERIDIAN MAE past the five-sixteenths pole, could not match strides with that rival in upper stretch and flattened to third. SHADY STRIPES broke out and bumped CAMMY'S GIRL, dropped under under coaxing early, went two wide into the turn, lacked room behind rivals from the five-sixteenths pole to the quarter pole, angled out into the clear and improved position. LYNDEE'S DREAM broke a step slow, followed in range from off the rail or outside a rival, took the turn two then three wide and weakened in the lane. LIL TESSA stalked from inside, tipped two wide at the quarter pole and also weakened. CAN YOU DREAM chased in range briefly between rivals then dropped off the pace, trailed on the fence into the turn, angled off the rail quickly, came four wide into the stretch and passed a tired rival. VOICES OF AUTISM vied inside to the five-sixteenths pole, then yielded to the top pair and tired in the stretch.
