Footnotes
BEMBRIDGE LEDGE broke out and brushed a foe at the start, pressed two wide, bid and vied around the far turn, sparred with the early leader through midstretch then edged ahead in the final sixteenth. RUNNING GAME set the pace as the eventual winner applied outer pressure, vied with that one around the far turn, dueled gamely through the lane, but was bested late then saved place from an outer foe at the wire. HELLO BEAUTY stalked along the inside, chased the embattled leading pair from the two to three path through upper stretch, tipped to take aim from the four path into the final sixteenth, closed in late but missed place at the wire. MO EXPECTATIONS broke a step slow, brushed with an outer rival and stumbled at the start, settled off of the pace along the inside, came under urging with a half mile to go, took the far turn in the two path, rallied between rivals into the final furlong and ran on willingly along the inside late. SHEILA'S LION brushed with an inner foe leaving the gate, got keen early on before settling well back two wide, took the far turn in the three path, swung out to the six path into the lane, picked up stride floating to the eight path in upper stretch and rallied willingly to reach a minor share at the wire. TAKE NOTE OF THIS bumped with an inner foe at the start, pursued from midpack three to two wide around the first turn, pursued in the five path into upper stretch and chased evenly. CRAWFORD was bumped between horses and pinched back at the start, saved ground well back, pursued in the three path and between horses in upper stretch, moved to the six path and failed to threaten. STAR BLESSING (IRE) tracked two wide, then from the three path around the far turn, chased in the four path in upper stretch while hanging on his left lead, changed over and faded between horses at the furlong grounds. SUN LIGHTNING tracked along the inside, chased in upper stretch and faded. THERAVADA raced off of the pace four to three wide around the first turn, improved in the four path around the far turn, but flattened out in the six to seven path and between foes in upper stretch. JEWELED CITY settled off of the pace two wide and made little impact. VINO BELLA broke slowly and was last away, trailed in the two path and got outrun.
