GOOD AFTERNOON & WELCOME TO SUPURR SATURDAY
TODAY WE ARE AT BELMONT PARK
DEFENDING CHAMP, PEEPTOAD, WILL TRY TO
''LEAP'' INTO A REPEAT PERFORMANCE OF VICTORY
HONORING THAT CHALLENGE OUR FEATURE EVENT WILL BE
THE 'LEAP OR LANGUISH' STAKES
THE DEFENDING CHAMP WILL HAVE 11 EBULLIENT CHALLENGERS
ALL TRYING TO PREVENT HER 'LEAP' INTO THE WINNER CIRCLE
THE DYNAMIC DOZEN ARE IN THE GATE READY TO RUN
AND THEY'RE OFF IN THE ''LEAP OR LANGUISH'' STAKES
WITH ONE GIANT LEAP FOR THE LEAD ~
DEFENDING CHAMP, PEEPTOAD, JOINED BY 2 COLTS
CRUZAN & POST TIME MIKE LEAVE THE FIELD WONDERING
IF THEIR GATES ALL OPENED AT THE SAME TIME!
THIS TEMERARIOUS TRIO WILL TAKE THE FIELD INTO THE TURN
OUT OF THE TURN THEY COME
THE ORIGINAL TRIO NOW CHANGING AS PEEPTOAD HAS
A NEW CHALLENGER RIGHT ON HER TAIL ~ AND IT'S NOT A COLT!
THUNDER CAT WITH AN IMPRESSIVE MOVE UP THE RAIL IS
JUST A HALF LENGTH BEHIND THE DEFENDING CHAMP
CRUZAN IS NEXT ABOUT 8 LENGTHS BACK
IT'S ANOTHER BIG GAP TO RAVEN, POST TIME MIKE & TIGER DANCER
THIS TRIO IS FOLLOWED BY BLUNNY WHOSE ENERGIZER BATTERY
SEEMS TO BE ON HALF-CHARGE SO FAR ~
ANOTHER FEW LENGTHS BACK ARE ROAMIN & DUSTY
AND THE TRAILING TRIO OF EL PRADO, RUFFIAN & CIGARSHOP
ARE RUNNING IN THE TWILIGHT ZONE OF TURTLE-DOM
NO SIGNS OF SPEED YET
THEY'RE AT THE TOP OF THE STRETCH
PEEPTOAD CONTINUES TO SHOW THE WAY
CRUZAN IS NEXT ALONG WITH THUNDER CAT
DUSTY IS MOVING UP ALONG WITH POST TIME MIKE
IT'S A LONG LONG WAY BACK TO THE REST WHO WILL NEED
TO SPROUT PEGASUS WINGS TO GET A PIECE OF THE PURSE
AND DOWN THE STRETCH THEY COME
PEEPTOAD ALL OUT HEADING TO A REPEAT LEAP OF VICTORY
BUT SUDDENLY 2 COLTS ARE CATCHING UP QUICKLY
WITH A SUPER SONIC SURGE OF SPEED
ROAMIN FROM THE CLOUDS & CRUZAN NOW WITHIN
STRIKING DISTANCE OF THE FEISTY FAST FILLY IN FRONT
BOTH COLTS FLEW RIGHT ON PAST THUNDER CAT WITH
AN AMAZING TURN OF FOOT & POWER
DUSTY HAS CAUGHT UP TO THUNDER CAT
POST TIME MIKE IS RIGHT THERE WITH THE 2 FILLYS
ENERGIZER-BLUNNY IS NEXT BUT NOT GAINING ANY GROUND
EL PRADO, RAVEN, TIGER DANCER & CIGARSHOP ARE FAR BACK
BUT NOT AS FAR BACK AS RUFFIAN
THE NOT SO FRISKY FILLY STALLED LEAVING THE GATE
AND HAS MEANDERED ALONG THE WHOLE RACE
WITHOUT ANY ENERGY OR APPARENT INTEREST IN RUNNING ~
SHE COULD BE AIMING FOR A GOLDEN GOOSE EGG NEST!
IT'S A STAMPEDE TO THE WIRE AS PEEPTOAD TRYING TO
HOLD OFF THE LATE CHALLENGE OF ROAMIN & CRUZAN
SUDDENLY IS DIGGING DEEP TO FIND THAT EXTRA POWER
THAT ONLY A CHAMPION HAS, LEAVING THE COLTS IN HER WAKE
THE LEAPING PEEPTOAD SHOWING NO SIGNS OF 'LANGUISH'
