A Fair Ol Dance N reached the top in a contested :26.3 opening panel over a sloppy surface. But when Ronnie Wrenn gave him that :30.1 second-quarter breather, the 8-year-old A Rocknroll Dance-Presidential Affair gelding opened a 1-1/2 length lead at the three-quarters and scored comfortably in 1:52.1. Howard Hughes N raced well first over for second, 2-1/4 lengths back, while the pocket-sitting Carolina Beach was third.

Ron Burke trains A Fair Ol Dance N, who extended his career bankroll to $228,785, for Burke Racing Stable, Weaver Bruscemi LLC and Kitefield Stable.

Dave Palone and Ridge Warren each piloted three winners on the 13-race card.
