GOOD AFTERNOON & WELCOME TO SUPURR SATURDAY
FROM GULFSTREAM PARK WHERE OUR FEATURE EVENT ON
'FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH' DAY WILL BE THE 'PONCE DE LEON' S.

POST-TIME-MIKE WILL HAVE 10 CHALLENGERS TRYING TO STOP
HIM FROM A REPEAT WINNING PERFORMANCE ~

WE SEE THAT 9 ARE STANDING QUIETLY IN THE GATE AS A
'BOLD RUCKUS' HAS BROKEN OUT WITH TIGER DANCER & CIGARSHOP
NOT SURE WHY ------ BUT THE GATE CREW HAS IT RESOLVED

AND AWAAAAAAAAAY THEY GO IN THE 'PONCE DE LEON' STAKES

LIKE 'SPRING CLEANING DAY' ~ DUSTY HAS DUSTED THE FIELD
WITH AN EARLY SURGE OF SPEED TO TAKE COMMAND OF THE LEAD

IT'S SEVERAL LENGTHS BACK TO A QUICKLY CLOSING TRIO
OF POST-TIME-MIKE ~ CATALINA AND PEEPTOAD

THUNDER CAT IS NEXT GAINING GROUND QUICKLY FOLLOWED BY RUFFIAN WHO HAS NOT YET RELEASED HER ''INNER CHEETAH'

CIGARSHOP IS NEXT RIGHT ON RUFFIAN'S TAIL
HE IS FOLLOWED CLOSELY BY BLUNNY, REAL QUIET & CRUZAN

TIGER DANCER IS JUST DOING A SUPER-SLOW-SAMBA WAY BACK

========= OUT OF THE TURN THEY COME ===========

THINGS HAVE CHANGED DRAMATICALLY IN A HEARTBEAT AS
DUSTY SUDDENLY SPOOKED AT SOMETHING IN THE INFIELD
LOSING MOMENTUM BADLY AS WELL AS THE LEAD!

IT IS NOW PEEPTOAD 'LEAPING' TO TAKE COMMAND ALONG
WITH THUNDER CAT AS THESE 2 FILLYS LEAD THE WAY

IT'S 7 LENGTHS BACK TO BLUNNY & DUSTY FOLLOWED CLOSELY
BY REAL QUIET ~ POST-TIME-MIKE ~ CATALINA & CRUZAN

ANOTHER FEW LENGTHS BACK ARE CIGARSHOP & RUFFIAN
AS TIGER DANCER CONTINUES TO JUST STROLL ALONG IN
NO HURRY AT ALL, SHOWING LITTLE TO NO INTEREST IN RUNNING!

===== THEY'RE AT THE TOP OF THE STRETCH =====

AND NOW ONCE AGAIN THINGS HAVE CHANGED AS
A TRIO OF REAL QUIET, CRUZAN & RUFFIAN ARE AT THE FRONT!

DEFENDING CHAMP POST-TIME-MIKE & THUNDER CAT ARE NEXT ~
FOLLOWED CLOSELY BY CATALINA

PEEPTOAD & BLUNNY ARE JUST 2 LENGTHS BACK
DUSTY & CIGARSHOP ARE STRUGGLING TO KEEP UP

TIGER DANCER HAS SLOWED DOWN TO A WALTZ TEMPO
SO FAR BACK SHE MAY NOT EVEN REALIZE SHE IS IN A RACE!

THOSE SEAGULLS IN THE INFIELD HAVE CAPTURED HER ATTENTION
FROM RACING TO BIRD WATCHING!
HER CONNECTIONS MUST BE IN FRENZY MODE RIGHT NOW, PERHAPS EVEN CONSIDERING A RE-TRAINING NEAR A BIRD SANCTUARY!

============ DOWN THE STRETCH THEY COME ===========

REAL QUIET NOW HAS SHAKEN OFF CRUZAN & RUFFIAN TO TAKE COMMAND OF THE LEAD FOLLOWED BY THUNDER CAT & CATALINA

POST-TIME-MIKE IS GAINING GROUND WITH A SUDDEN BURST OF
SPEED AND POWER, MOVING UP JUST IN BEHIND REAL QUIET
NOW WITH AN EXCELLENT CHANCE OF A REPEAT VICTORY

PEEPTOAD & BLUNNY ARE NEXT ~ JUST A LENGTH BACK

CRUZAN & RUFFIAN SEVERAL LENGTHS BEHIND THAT DUO

DUSTY & CIGARSHOP SHOWING NO SPEED ARE EVEN FARTHER BACK
AS TIGER DANCER CONTINUES HER FOX-TROT, STILL BIRD-WATCHING

REAL QUIET IS BEGINNING TO LOOK A BIT LEG WEARY AS
POST-TIME-MIKE IS NECK AND NECK WITH THE COLT IN FRONT

RUFFIAN SUDDENLY LET HER 'INNER CHEETAH' LOOSE ~
GAINING GROUND WITH EVERY STRIDE JOINING CRUZAN
BEHIND THE FRONT RUNNING COLT DUO IN THE LEAD

THE WIRE LOOMS JUST AHEAD AS POST-TIME-MIKE SUDDENLY
SPROUTED WINGS AND HAS LEFT REAL QUIET IN HIS WAKE!

THE SUPER SPEEDY COLT HAS ZOOOOOMED TO THE WIRE IN A BREATHTAKING EXHIBITION OF POWER TO REPEAT HIS PREVIOUS 'VICTORY GALLOP' ~ LEAVING REAL QUIET WONDERING 'HUH?'

CRUZAN HOLDS ON FOR THE SHOW SPOT JUST FENDING OFF
A FIERCELY FAST FILLY AS RUFFIAN'S 'INNER CHEETAH' SUDDENLY SURGED AS QUICKLY AS THE WINNING COLT AT THE WIRE!

SO POST-TIME-MIKE DEFINITELY HAD HIS 'PROMISES FULFILLED' AS
HIS TRAINER FELT CONFIDENT OF A REPEAT WIN BY THIS COLT

NOW NEXT TIME, POST-TIME-MIKE RUNS FOR THE 3-PEAT!
