GOOD AFTERNOON AND WELCOME TO
SUPURRR~SATURDAY AT GULFSTREAM PARK
OUR FEATURE EVENT FIELD HAS BEEN REDUCED
TO ONLY NINE RUNNERS DUE TO THE SCRATCH OF
CATALINA ... PEEPTOAD ...STARK... OAKLAWN CAPPER
ALL FOR VARIOUS REASONS
THE HORSES ARE ENTERING THE STARTING GATE
WITH OUT INCIDENT FOR A NICE CHANGE OF PACE
AND AWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY THEY GO
COMING OUT OF THE GATE LIKE A SPEED DEMON
IS POST TIME MIKE TAKING THE LEAD WITH POWER & AUTHORITY
CATCHING UP QUICKLY IS JOHN HENRY
THESE TWO COLTS HAVE TAKEN A GIGANTIC LEAD
THAT IT MAY BE NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE FOR ANYONE TO CATCH UP
BUT WE HAVE A LONG WAY TO GO ~
AND ANYTHING CAN & OFTEN DOES HAPPEN
COMING OUT OF THE TURN
IT IS STILL JOHN HENRY & POST TIME MIKE IN THE LEAD BY 15 LENGTHS
BLUNNY & DUSTY ARE NEXT
RUFFIAN & TIGER DANCER -- ARE ANOTHER LENGTH BACK
AND BRINGING UP THE REAR ....
REAL QUIET... EL PRADO... CRIMINAL TYPE
THEY'RE AT THE TOP OF THE STRETCH
WITH A POWERFUL BURST OF SPEED IT IS JOHN HENRY
WHO NOW HAS TAKEN TOTAL COMMAND OF THE RACE
LEAVING POST TIME MIKE IN HIS WAKE
HE LEADS THE FIELD BY AT LEAST 15 LENGTHS
THE REST OF THE FIELD ARE NOW JUST RUNNING FOR A PIECE OF THE PURSE
POST TIME MIKE --- STILL RUNNING STRONGLY IN 2nd
THERE IS A TIGHTLY CONTESTED BATTLE
BEHIND THE TWO FRONT RUNNING COLTS
BETWEEN BLUNNY & DUSTY
RUFFIAN -- THE DEFENDING CHAMPION STILL IN WITH A SHOT
AND DOWN THE STRETCH THEY COME
JOHN HENRY HAS INCREASED HIS LEAD BY SO MUCH
THAT THERE IS NO DOUBT WHO WILL STAND IN THE
WINNER'S CIRCLE TODAY AS HE HAS ALMOST DUPLICATED
HIS WIN FROM TWO WEEKS AGO!
CONSIDERING THE LONG LAYOFF
THIS IS AN AMAZING REPEAT PERFORMANCE
SHOWING POWER, SPEED, AND INCREDIBLE DETERMINATION
POST TIME MIKE STILL HOLDING ON TO 2nd
NOW HAS A CHALLENGE FROM BLUNNY & DUSTY
WHO HAVE ACCELERATED QUICKLY & RUNNING JUST OFF OUT HIS TAIL
DEFENDING CHAMPION RUFFIAN
HAS NO CHANCE AT ALL OF A REPEAT VICTORY
AS JOHN HENRY CROSSES THE WIRE A "MILE" AHEAD OF EVERYBODY ELSE
WE WILL HAVE TO WAIT FOR A PHOTO TO DETERMINE
