Kiss the Kid pressed the pace of favored Daaher, gained a brief lead midway around the far turn under jockey Eddie Castro, then weakened late, holding off Brass Hat by a nose to get third place money as the 46-1 longest shot on the board. He improved his record to 5 wins, 1 second, and 3 thirds in 18 career starts, earning $295,467 for owner-trainer Amy Tarrant.
