NOTES: Vann Belvoir, owner of Say Say, won this race last year as a trainer and owner with Kit Cat Kitty…Recent history bodes well for Say Say, Madame Pele and My Cadi, as maidens have won the Diane Kem two of the past three years…Trainer David Martinez and owner Keith Swagerty could sweep the 2-year-old stakes this year with a victory by Blast’sdoubledeuce in the Diane Kem and Mike Man’s Gold in the Dennis Dodge…Doris Harwood, first all-time with 20 2-year-old stakes wins, looks for her first Diane Kem victory with Kissing Ruby.
